Habitat‐Based Predictions of Bridle Shiner (Notropis bifrenatus) in the Northeastern United States
We developed local and regional models for Maine and New Hampshire that may be used to focus bridle shiner (Notropis bifrenatus) surveys on areas with high predicted habitat suitability. This is significant because bridle shiners receive protection or concern status in thirteen states and two Canadian provinces: Limited data show that bridle shiners ...

Isoetes in Alaska and the Aleutians
Three species of Isoetes are recognized as present in the study area: I. echinospora Durieu (diploid, 2n=22), I. maritima Underw. (tetraploid, 2n=44) and I. occidentalis L.F. Hend. (hexaploid, 2n=66). Three interspecific hybrids are expected and two are known to be present: I. xpseudotruncata D.M. Britton & D.F.

Cryptic CAM photosynthesis in Joshua tree (Yucca brevifolia, Y. jaegeriana)
Summary Joshua trees are long‐lived perennial monocots native to the Mojave Desert in North America. Composed of two species, Yucca brevifolia and Y. jaegeriana (Asparagaceae), Joshua trees are imperiled by climate change, with decreases in suitable habitat predicted under future climate change scenarios.

Physiological roles of lignins – tuning cell wall hygroscopy and biomechanics
Summary Lignins constitute the second most abundant carbon‐storing biopolymers in the biosphere. These phenolic polymers accumulate in different concentrations, compositions, and localisations within and between cell wall layers and cell types. Lignins were acquired during plant terrestrialisation 450 million years ago, and the diversification of their

Abstract Potato wild relatives (Solanum section Petota) are a source of genetic diversity for climate‐smart improvement of modern cultivars (Solanum tuberosum). The allotetraploid Solanum acaule Bitter. has been previously used to introgress frost tolerance into potato cultivars such as Yukon Gold and Viking.

ABSTRACT Amplicon sequencing tools such as metabarcoding are commonly used for thorough characterisation of microbial diversity in natural samples. They mostly rely on the amplification of conserved universal markers, mainly ribosomal genes, allowing the taxonomic assignment of barcodes.

Pteridophyta collected in Northern Nigeria and Northern Cameroon
25 species of Pteridophyta were collected in Northern Nigeria (mainly the Lake Chad Basin and the Mandara Mts.) and in the neighbouring parts of Cameroon. 11 of them have not been recorded previously from this area: Isoetes schweinfurthii A. Br. in Bak.,

Morphology and ultrastructure of megaspores and microspores of Isoetes sehnemii Fuchs (Lycophyta)
The morphology and wall ultrastructure of megaspores and microspores of Isoetes sehnemii that grows in Brazil were analyzed as part of the study of the Isoetaceae present in Southern South America. The observations were performed with light, scanning and
