Extraordinary preservation of gene collinearity over three hundred million years revealed in homosporous lycophytes [PDF]
Homosporous lycophytes (Lycopodiaceae) are a deeply diverged lineage in the plant tree of life, having split from heterosporous lycophytes (Selaginella and Isoetes) ~400 Mya. Compared to the heterosporous lineage, Lycopodiaceae has markedly larger genome

Mycorrhizal relationships in Lycophytes and Ferns
2016Mycorrhizae, i.e., symbiotic associations between fungi and plant roots, occur in about 80% of land plant species and have been shown to benefit both the fungus (carbon uptake) and plant (nutrient and water uptake, protection against pathogenic fungi). We here provide a brief overview of the state of knowledge of mycorrhization in ferns. Only about 62%

Plastomes of Bryophytes, Lycophytes and Ferns
2012We review current progress in our understanding of chloroplast genomes (plastomes) of liverworts, mosses, hornworts, lycophytes and monilophytes. We briefly cover some of the methods used to obtain complete nucleotide sequences of plastomes and we summarize the published sequences from the plant groups above. We explore some of the evolutionary changes

Evolutionary Genomics of Ferns and Lycophytes
2016Abstract Ferns and lycophytes are ubiquitous and charismatic members of many terrestrial ecosystems. Members of these lineages play key ecological roles in many of Earth's biomes and have an ancient fossil record dating back to the Devonian. Modern ferns underwent significant diversification in the Cretaceous, and the clade as a whole occupies a ...

A community‐derived classification for extant lycophytes and ferns
Journal of Systematics and Evolution, 2016AbstractPhylogeny has long informed pteridophyte classification. As our ability to infer evolutionary trees has improved, classifications aimed at recognizing natural groups have become increasingly predictive and stable. Here, we provide a modern, comprehensive classification for lycophytes and ferns, down to the genus level, utilizing a community ...

Evolution and Classification of Ferns and Lycophytes
2018The last several decades have seen a transformation in our understanding of the evolutionary history of ferns and lycophytes. Historically the plants belonging to these lineages were grouped together and referred to as “pteridophytes” or “ferns and fern allies.” These terms both describe what we now recognize to be non-monophyletic assemblages, and ...

Biology and Evolution of Ferns and Lycophytes
2008With their team of contemporary scholars, the editors present a thorough coverage of fundamental topics necessary for obtaining an up-to-date understanding of the biology of ferns and lycophytes. The book is organized into major topics that build from the individual and its biochemistry and structure, to genetics and populations, to interactions among ...

Paleo-phyllotaxis: Fucales, bryophytes, lycophytes and monilophytes
BioSystemsFibonacci spiral arrangements have evolved independently in brown algae, bryophytes, in lycophytes and euphyllophytes. "Non-Fibonacci spirals" have been described in Asteroxylon mackiei from the Rhynie chert and on the rhyzomes of lycopsid fossils (stigmaria) as well as several groups of living lycophytes and euphyllophytes.
