What can lycophytes teach us about plant evolution and development? Modern perspectives on an ancient lineage [PDF]

open access: yesEvolution &Development, Volume 23, Issue 3, Page 174-196, May 2021., 2020
All Evo‐Devo studies rely on representative sampling across the tree of interest to elucidate evolutionary trajectories through time. In land plants, genetic resources are well established in model species representing lineages including bryophytes ...

Is There a Key Primer for Amplification of Core Land Plant DNA Barcode Regions (rbcL and matK)? [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
We use in silico PCR to select and measure the amplification capability of primer. We tested 366 and 489 published primers for the rbcL and matK regions, respectively, using sequences from 8463 different land plant species. Our results indicate a set of primers that effectively cover all land plant sequences, particularly for the rbcL region.

Evolution of the jasmonate ligands and their biosynthetic pathways

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 238, Issue 5, Page 2236-2246, June 2023., 2023
Summary Different plant species employ different jasmonates to activate a conserved signalling pathway in land plants, where (+)‐7‐iso‐JA‐Ile (JA‐Ile) is the ligand for the COI1/JAZ receptor in angiosperms and dn‐cis‐OPDA, dn‐iso‐OPDA and Δ4‐dn‐iso‐OPDA act as ligands in Marchantia polymorpha.

Evolution of rapid blue‐light response linked to explosive diversification of ferns in angiosperm forests

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 230, Issue 3, Page 1201-1213, May 2021., 2021
Summary Ferns appear in the fossil record some 200 Myr before angiosperms. However, as angiosperm‐dominated forest canopies emerged in the Cretaceous period there was an explosive diversification of modern (leptosporangiate) ferns, which thrived in low, blue‐enhanced light beneath angiosperm canopies.

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Theophylline Methyl 1,3,4-Oxadiazole as Anticancer Agents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
A series of theophylline methyl 1,3,4-oxadiazole small molecules were obtained via cyclization of theophylline-7-acetohydrazide with different benzoic acids. The compounds (IVa-j) were synthesized and characterized by using conventional methods.

Convergent evolution of the UbiA prenyltransferase family underlies the independent acquisition of furanocoumarins in plants

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 225, Issue 5, Page 2166-2182, March 2020., 2020
Summary Furanocoumarins (FCs) are plant‐specialized metabolites with potent allelochemical properties. The distribution of FCs is scattered with a chemotaxonomical tendency towards four distant families with highly similar FC pathways. The mechanism by which this pathway emerged and spread in plants has not been elucidated.

Systematics and Chatacteristics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The "Tracheophyte Phylogeny Poster – Vascular Plants - Systematics and Characteristics" is an educational tool presenting an overview of the evolutionary relationships among non-flowering vascular plants (lycophytes, monilophytes, and gymnosperms ...

Towards a plant model for enigmatic U‐to‐C RNA editing: the organelle genomes, transcriptomes, editomes and candidate RNA editing factors in the hornwort Anthoceros agrestis

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 225, Issue 5, Page 1974-1992, March 2020., 2020
Summary Hornworts are crucial to understand the phylogeny of early land plants. The emergence of ‘reverse’ U‐to‐C RNA editing accompanying the widespread C‐to‐U RNA editing in plant chloroplasts and mitochondria may be a molecular synapomorphy of a hornwort–tracheophyte clade.
