Polyploidy in Gymnosperms-A Reappraisal
, 2021 Recent polyploidy in gymnosperms is unusually scarce being present in only 9.80 % of the 714 taxa studied cytologically. Polyploid forms are represented by sporadic seedlings and individual trees, intraspecific polyploidy in cultivation or in wild and ...

Cell wall composition strongly influences mesophyll conductance in gymnosperms.
The Plant Journal, 2020 Cell wall thickness is widely recognized as one of the main determinants of mesophyll conductance to CO2 (gm ). However, little is known about the components that regulate cell wall effective CO2 diffusivity (i.e.

Dry Climate Filters Gymnosperms but Not Angiosperms through Seed Mass
Diversity, 2023 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

Green Plants in the Red: A Baseline Global Assessment for the IUCN Sampled Red List Index for Plants [PDF]
, 2015 Plants provide fundamental support systems for life on Earth and are the basis for all terrestrial ecosystems; a decline in plant diversity will be detrimental to all other groups of organisms including humans. Decline in plant diversity has been hard to

Hydrophobia of gymnosperms: myth or reality? A global analysis [PDF]
, 2015 According to the classical textbooks, the gymnosperms are the only seed plants without aquatic species. Recently, however, a set of virtually complete compilations on gymnosperms has been published, enabling a new evaluation of the putative hydrophobia ...

Evolution of plant reproduction: from fusion and dispersal to interaction and communication [PDF]
, 2009 Based on the existing data concerning the evolution of the sexual reproduction, it is argued that the processes of sex differentiation and interactions play a key role in evolution. From the beginning environment and organism are unified.
