Transcriptional Landscapes of Divergent Sporophyte Development in Two Mosses, Physcomitrium (Physcomitrella) patens and Funaria hygrometrica [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 Understanding the molecular basis of morphological shifts is a fundamental question of evolutionary biology. New morphologies may arise through the birth/death of genes (gene gain/loss) or by reutilizing existing gene sets. Yet, the relative contribution

Histological Diagnosis and Recovery Regulation of Gametophyte Developmental Disorders During In Vitro Propagation of the Medicinal Fern Cibotium barometz [PDF]
PlantsCibotium barometz (L.) J.Sm., a medicinal fern, relies on three interconnected processes for in vitro propagation: spore germination, ordered gametophyte development, and successful initiation and early establishment of the sporophyte generation. However,

A Rapid and Highly Effective Protocol for Sporophyte Proliferation of Drynaria roosii and the Potential Regulation Mechanism by Plant Growth Regulators [PDF]
PlantsSporophyte propagation in medicinal ferns is influenced by explant type, owing to their distinctive two-phase life cycle: haloid gametophyte and sporophyte.

Factors accounting for limited sexual reproduction in a long-lived unisexual plant species [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant ScienceIntroductionPlant dispersal directly depends on reproduction success, and hence, on sexual systems. In bryophytes, wherein fertilization involves a continuous film of water between male and female sexual organs, reproduction in unisexual species involves

AN OVERVIEW OF BRYOPHYTES DIVISION
BioLink, 2021 Bryophyte is a non-vascular plant, consisting of three classes: mosses, hornworts, and liverworts. The body forms have a thallus, and some have a leaf-like organ. The class division of the Bryophyte division is base on anatomical and morphological traits,

It’s the Little Things: The Role of Microscopic Life Stages in Maintaining Kelp Populations
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Kelp forests are experiencing broad scale declines in abundance and shifts in latitudinal ranges in many areas of the world due to numerous environmental stressors, especially those associated with climate change.
