Diversity of ferns and lycophytes in Brazil [PDF]
Abstract This compilation of ferns and lycophytes in Brazil is an update of the one published in 2010 in Catálogo de Plantas e Fungos do Brasil. The methodology consisted in collecting data from regional checklists, taxonomic revisions, and selected databases.

Complete plastid genomes from Ophioglossum californicum, Psilotum nudum, and Equisetum hyemale reveal an ancestral land plant genome structure and resolve the position of Equisetales among monilophytes [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Plastid genome structure and content is remarkably conserved in land plants. This widespread conservation has facilitated taxon-rich phylogenetic analyses that have resolved organismal relationships among many land plant groups.

Diversity and composition of ferns and lycophytes in a fragmented landscape in Ecuadorian Amazonia
Tropical forests have been subjected to increasing deforestation, leading to severe habitat loss and fragmentation of the landscape. Studies of various plant groups-indicate alteration in species diversity and assemblage composition in response to these ...

A lycophyte's plight when the light is too bright
Plants cannot go to the store to buy sunscreen when they get too much sunlight. Instead, they use a suite of molecular processes that turn excess absorbed light energy into heat so that it can be harmlessly dissipated. These photoprotective processes collectively fall under the umbrella term “nonphotochemical quenching of chlorophyll fluorescence ...

The evolution of aluminum accumulation in ferns and lycophytes [PDF]
PREMISE OF THE STUDY:This paper investigates the occurrence and evolution of aluminum (Al) accumulation within ferns and lycophytes, which is characterized by Al concentrations above 1000 mg·kg−1 in aboveground plant tissues. We hypothesize that this feature is more common in ferns than in angiosperms, and potentially correlated with growth form and ...

Selaginella genome analysis – entering the ‘homoplasy heaven’ of the MADS world
In flowering plants, arguably the most significant transcription factors regulating development are MADS-domain proteins, encoded by Type I and Type II MADS-box genes. Type II genes are divided into the MIKCC and MIKC* groups. In angiosperms, these types
