New records of ferns and lycophytes from Rishiri and Rebun Islands, with an updated list of species from the region [PDF]
We update the checklist of ferns and lycophytes from Rishiri and Rebun Islands, Hokkaido, northern Japan. Based on a combination of extensive field surveys and thorough review of previous literature and herbarium records, we compile a robust and revised ...

Shared body plans of lycophytes inferred from root formation of Lycopodium clavatum
Late Silurian to early Devonian lycophytes had prostrate aerial axes, while subordinate organs or subterranean axes were formed around the dichotomies of the axes. The subterranean axes are hypothesized to have evolved into root-bearing axes (rhizophores)

Membranous Interacting Partners of Phage-Type Plastid RNA Polymerase Have Limited Impact on Plastid Gene Expression During Chloroplast Development. [PDF]
ABSTRACT In vascular plants, genes in the plastid genome are transcribed by two types of RNA polymerases, namely, phage‐type nuclear‐encoded and bacterial‐type plastid‐encoded plastid RNA polymerases (NEP and PEP, respectively). Eudicots, including Arabidopsis, carry two isoforms of NEP, RPOTp and RPOTmp.

Evolutionary conservation of ABA signaling for stomatal closure in ferns [PDF]
ABA-driven stomatal regulation reportedly evolved after the divergence of ferns, during the early evolution of seed plants approximately 360 Mya. This hypothesis is based on the observation that the stomata of certain fern species are unresponsive to ABA,

Plastid Phylogenomics and Plastomic Diversity of the Extant Lycophytes
Although extant lycophytes represent the most ancient surviving lineage of early vascular plants, their plastomic diversity has long been neglected. The ancient evolutionary history and distinct genetic diversity patterns of the three lycophyte families, each with its own characteristics, provide an ideal opportunity to investigate the interfamilial ...
