Isolation and Characterization of Novel Huperzine-Producing Endophytic Fungi from Lycopodiaceae Species [PDF]
Journal of Fungi, 2023 Huperzine A (HupA) is an important drug for treating Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and is primarily extracted from the Huperzia serrata (Lycopodiaceae). Failures in the chemical synthesis of Hup and in vitro culture have put H. serrata in danger of extinction,

Evidence for Co-evolutionary History of Early Diverging Lycopodiaceae Plants With Fungi
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Lycopods are tracheophytes in the Kingdom Plantae and represent one of the oldest lineages of living vascular plants. Symbiotic interactions between these plants with fungi and bacteria, including fine root endophytes in Endogonales, have been ...

Lycophyte transcriptomes reveal two whole-genome duplications in Lycopodiaceae: Insights into the polyploidization of Phlegmariurus [PDF]
Plant Diversity, 2022 Lycophytes are an ancient clade of the non-flowering vascular plants with chromosome numbers that vary from tens to hundreds. They are an excellent study system for examining whole-genome duplications (WGDs), or polyploidization, in spore-dispersed ...

Development of polymorphic simple sequence repeat markers in Huperzia serrata (Lycopodiaceae)
Applications in Plant Sciences, 2019 Premise The natural population size of Huperzia serrata (Lycopodiaceae) has dramatically decreased and the species has become endangered due to overexploitation. Here, we developed simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers for H.
