Cryptic CAM photosynthesis in Joshua tree (Yucca brevifolia, Y. jaegeriana)

New Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 5, Page 2583-2598, December 2025.
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.

The small nuclear genomes of Selaginella are associated with a low rate of genome size evolution [PDF]

, 2016
The haploid nuclear genome size (1C DNA) of vascular land plants varies over several orders of magnitude. Much of this observed diversity in genome size is due to the proliferation and deletion of transposable elements.

Physiological roles of lignins – tuning cell wall hygroscopy and biomechanics

New Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 6, Page 2674-2706, December 2025.
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

Palynological analysis of Dennstaedtiaceae taxa from the Paranaense Phytogeografic Province that produce monolete spores and its systematic implications (I): Blotiella lindeniana , Histiopteris incisa and Paesia glandulosa [PDF]

, 2017
The genera of Dennstaedtiaceae have sporophytes with very different morphological characteristics between each other, and this feature has made difficult the systematic circumscription of the family.

Essential developmental processes in Physcomitrium patens require distinct levels of total activity provided by functionally redundant PpROP GTPases

New Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 6, Page 2865-2890, December 2025.
Summary RHO (RAS homologous) GTPases regulate important cellular and developmental processes in most eukaryotes. Plant‐specific ROP (RHO of plants) GTPase families expanded and functionally diversified during the evolution of vascular plants, but contain few members in nonvascular extant relatives of early land plants.

Phosphoproteomic analysis of the non-seed vascular plant model Selaginella moellendorffii. [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: Selaginella (Selaginella moellendorffii) is a lycophyte which diverged from other vascular plants approximately 410 million years ago. As the first reported non-seed vascular plant genome, Selaginella genome data allow comparative analysis of

Organellar-genome analyses from the lycophyte genus Isoetes L. show one of the highest frequencies of RNA editing in land plants

Frontiers in Plant Science
RNA editing is a post-transcriptional process that challenges the central dogma of molecular biology by modifying RNA sequences, introducing nucleotide changes at specific sites, and generating functional diversity beyond the genomic code, especially ...
