AbstractDriven by limited resources and a sense of urgency, the prioritization of species for conservation has been a persistent concern in conservation science. Gymnosperms (comprising ginkgo, conifers, cycads, and gnetophytes) are one of the most threatened groups of living organisms, with 40% of the species at high risk of extinction, about twice as

Evolution and structural variations in chloroplast tRNAs in gymnosperms
Background Chloroplast transfer RNAs (tRNAs) can participate in various vital processes. Gymnosperms have important ecological and economic value, and they are the dominant species in forest ecosystems in the Northern Hemisphere.

Variability of chromosome number and morphology and gymnosperm improvement [PDF]
The causes of monotypic and polytypic variability of the gymnosperm chromosome complex were studied. The development of karyogram and idiograms of the species should be applied in the aim of upgrading the breeding method and technique.

Polyploidy in Gymnosperms [PDF]
The gymnosperms constitute a primitive group of seed plants which have a considerable evolutionary interest. A substantial amount of literature on the morphology of the group exists, but very little has been written about the various cytogenetic factors responsible for evolution within the group.

Mobilisation of distributional data for vascular plants of Murmansk Region, Russia: Digital representation of the Flora of Murmansk Region [PDF]
The present-day demand for digital availability of distributional data in biodiversity studies requires a special effort in assembling and editing the data otherwise scattered in paper literature and herbarium collections, which can be poorly accessible ...

Wood density is strongly related to key aspects of tree physiological performance. While many studies have examined wood density in different parts of trees, for a variety of reasons, there are very few studies that have compared within-tree density ...

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 ...
