Rampant hybridization in an old tropical fern genus ( Danaea , Marattiaceae)
TAXONAbstract The number of hybrids has been reported to be lower in tropical than temperate ferns, but patterns of hybridization are poorly known in the tropics. We examine hybridization in the Neotropical fern genus Danaea (Marattiaceae) using a phylogenomic approach with ...

A metabarcoding protocol targeting two DNA regions to analyze root-associated fungal communities in ferns and lycophytes. [PDF]
Appl Plant Sci, 2023 Abstract Premise Detailed studies of the fungi associated with lycophytes and ferns provide crucial insights into the early evolution of land plants. However, most investigations to date have assessed fern–fungus interactions based only on visual root inspection. In the present research, we establish and evaluate a metabarcoding protocol to analyze the

Patterns of ferns community assemblages in some Malaysian and Nigerian tropical forests. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2022 The study assessed the patterns of ferns species richness (SR) and phylogenetic diversity (PD) in relation to the bioclimatic drivers in some Nigerian and Malaysian forests. Fern species richness and diversity is significantly higher in Malaysian forests than in Nigerian forests.

A new, simple, highly scalable, and efficient protocol for genomic DNA extraction from diverse plant taxa. [PDF]
Appl Plant Sci, 2021 Premise Commonly used molecular techniques such as next‐generation sequencing require reliable methods to extract DNA quickly and efficiently. Secondary compounds within plant tissues make this requirement all the more challenging, often forcing researchers to test different extraction methods tailored to their particular species of interest in order ...

Non‐seed plants are emerging gene sources for agriculture and insect control proteins
The Plant Journal, Volume 116, Issue 1, Page 23-37, October 2023., 2023 SUMMARY The non‐seed plants (e.g., charophyte algae, bryophytes, and ferns) have multiple human uses, but their contributions to agriculture and research have lagged behind seed plants. While sharing broadly conserved biology with seed plants and the major crops, non‐seed plants sometimes possess alternative molecular and physiological adaptations ...
