Chemical Relationships between Liverworts of the Family Lejeuneaceae (Porellales, Jungermanniopsida) [PDF]
The major purpose of this study was to determine the chemical relationships between liverwort species belonging to the Lejeuneaceae family on the basis of sesqui- and diterpenoid composition.

The liverwort genus Metzgeria (Jungermanniopsida) in Europe – An integrative taxonomic update
Abstract Species delimitation in liverworts, such as Metzgeria, is hampered by their limited morphology and hence morphologically determined specimens often turn out to belong to other taxa using molecular data. Metzgeria is a simple thalloid liverwort genus with over 100 species and a worldwide distribution. Seven species are listed to occur in Europe.

A Burmese amber fossil of Radula (Porellales, Jungermanniopsida) provides insights into the Cretaceous evolution of epiphytic lineages of leafy liverworts [PDF]
DNA-based divergence time estimates suggested major changes in the composition of epiphyte lineages of liverworts during the Cretaceous; however, evidence from the fossil record is scarce.

Abstract Premise Bryophytes form a major component of terrestrial plant biomass, structuring ecological communities in all biomes. Our understanding of the evolutionary history of hornworts, liverworts, and mosses has been significantly reshaped by inferences from molecular data, which have highlighted extensive homoplasy in various traits and repeated

crabs—A software program to generate curated reference databases for metabarcoding sequencing data
Abstract The measurement of biodiversity is an integral aspect of life science research. With the establishment of second‐ and third‐generation sequencing technologies, an increasing amount of metabarcoding data is being generated as we seek to describe the extent and patterns of biodiversity in multiple contexts.

Metabarcoding of soil environmental DNA replicates plant community variation but not specificity
While metabarcoding of plant DNA from their environment is an exciting method that can supplement inventorying of live plant species, the accuracy and specificity has yet to be fully assessed over complex continuous landscapes. This work shows that the metabarcoding of plant DNA from soil produces community profiles that are comparable to a ...

Macroclimatic structuring of spatial phylogenetic turnover in liverworts
Phylogenetic turnover has emerged as a powerful tool to identify the mechanisms by which biological communities assemble. When significantly structured along environmental gradients, phylogenetic turnover evidences phylogenetic niche conservatism, a critical principle explaining patterns of species distributions at different spatio–temporal scales ...

Centromere organization and UU/V sex chromosome behavior in a liverwort
Summary In 1917, sex chromosomes in plants were discovered in a liverwort with hetermorphic U and V chromosomes. Such heteromorphy is unexpected because, unlike the XY chromosomes in diploid‐dominant plants, in haploid‐dominant plants the female U and the male V chromosomes experience largely symmetrical potential recombination environments.
