Gymnosperms represent a broad range of seed-bearing plants that differ from flowering plants in not having seeds enclosed within carpels. Gymnosperms are probably monophyletic, having arisen among ‘progymnosperm’ stock in the Devonian. Key adaptations involving retention of the megagametophyte within a protective coating to form a seed on the parent ...

The importance of sampling standardization for comparisons of insect herbivory in deep time: a case study from the late Palaeozoic [PDF]
Sampling standardization has not been fully addressed for the study of insect herbivory in the fossil record. The effects of sampling within a single locality were explored almost a decade ago, but the importance of sampling standardization for ...

Recent advances on phylogenomics of gymnosperms and a new classification
Living gymnosperms comprise four major groups: cycads, Ginkgo, conifers, and gnetophytes. Relationships among/within these lineages have not been fully resolved.

Context and Mutation in Gymnosperm Chloroplast DNA [PDF]
Mutations and subsequent repair processes are known to be strongly context-dependent in the flowering-plant chloroplast genome. At least six flanking bases, three on each side, can have an influence on the relative rates of different types of mutation at

Effect of Host, Environment and Fungal Growth on Fungal Leaf Endophyte Communities in Taiwan
Fungal endophytes inhabit plant tissues without causing disease symptoms. They are highly diverse and distributed globally in all plants that have been investigated.

A Reference Genome Sequence for Giant Sequoia
The giant sequoia (Sequoiadendron giganteum) of California are massive, long-lived trees that grow along the U.S. Sierra Nevada mountains. Genomic data are limited in giant sequoia and producing a reference genome sequence has been an important goal to ...

Dry Climate Filters Gymnosperms but Not Angiosperms through Seed Mass
In the context of climate change in recent years, the fate of woody plant seed has an important impact on forest regeneration. Seed mass is an important reproductive strategy of plants. There are huge differences between gymnosperms (mainly conifers) and

Gymnosperm species richness patterns along the elevational gradient and its comparison with other plant taxonomic groups in the Himalayas [PDF]
Phylogenetic constraints on ecophysiological adaptations and specific resource requirements are likely to explain why some taxonomic/functional groups exhibit different richness patterns along climatic gradients.
