Speciation, dispersal and the build‐up of fern diversity in the American tropics

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2025, Issue 11, November 2025.
Understanding how the remarkable biodiversity of the American tropics developed has been a long‐standing question, yet knowledge gaps remain. Previous studies examined the roles of bioregions in shaping diversity patterns but often overlooked speciation, a critical driver of species richness, and insufficiently accounted for temporal changes in ...

A survey of plant and algal genomes and transcriptomes reveals new insights into the evolution and function of the cellulose synthase superfamily [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background Enzymes of the cellulose synthase (CesA) family and CesA-like (Csl) families are responsible for the synthesis of celluloses and hemicelluloses, and thus are of great interest to bioenergy research.

TRB proteins in moss reveal their evolutionarily conserved roles in plant development and telomere maintenance

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 124, Issue 3, November 2025.
Significance Statement TRB proteins in the moss P. patens are essential for normal development, telomere maintenance, and transcriptional regulation. Our findings demonstrate the evolutionary conservation of TRB functions across land plants and highlight their ancient origin in streptophytes.

Was the Dry Diagonal of South America a Barrier for Dispersing Pteridaceae (Polypodiopsida) Species Between the Brazilian Atlantic Forest and Amazon Forest?

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim We sought to assess how phylogenetic patterns within the fern family Pteridaceae are related to the history of the Amazon Forest and the Brazilian Atlantic Forest, as well as the Dry Diagonal of South America. The age of taxa present in these regions was estimated, as well as those found in previously identified areas of endemism for the ...
