Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 5, October 2026.We reveal antibiotics drive qualitative turnover, while temperature induces quantitative fluctuations in kelp gametophyte microbiomes. This 15°C growth‐pathogen trade‐off guides precision seedling management. ABSTRACT Microbiome dysbiosis represents a critical bottleneck in sustainable kelp aquaculture, yet the distinct regulatory mechanisms of ...

Embryo-endosperm-sporophyte interactions in maize seeds
, 2017 Maize seeds, like those of all other angiosperms, are highly complex biological systems. This complexity is a consequence of the fact that the angiosperm seed is composed of tissues that evolved from three genetically distinct organisms: the mother plant

Evidence for regulation of transpiration in nonstomatal plants: insights from bryophyte gametophytes
New Phytologist, Volume 252, Issue 1, Page 54-68, October 2026.Kinetics of cell wall water vapor potential (Ψcw) and resistance of cell wall and plasmatic membrane to water flux in response to cytoplasmic water potential (Ψcyt) during dehydration. Ψcyt was calculated from the WC at any moment of the dehydration curve by using the relationship between −1/Ψw and WC of pressure volume curves and assuming Ψw = Ψcyt ...

The sporophyte of the Paleogene liverwort Frullania varians Caspary [PDF]
, 2012 We document the sporophyte of the extinct Frullania varians based on an inclusion in Late Oligocene Bitterfeld amber from Germany. The sporophyte consists of a short, ca. 45 µm thick seta that exceeds the perianth only slightly; the elongate-ovate, acute

Epigenetic differentiation persists after male gametogenesis in natural populations of the perennial herb Helleborus foetidus (Ranunculaceae). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Despite the importance of assessing the stability of epigenetic variation in non-model organisms living in real-world scenarios, no studies have been conducted on the transgenerational persistence of epigenetic structure in wild plant populations.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.Using MaxEnt and ArcGIS, we modeled the distribution of the endangered medicinal fern Cibotium barometz under current and future climate scenarios (SSP1‐2.6 to SSP5‐8.5). Precipitation of the Driest Quarter (49.9% contribution) was the key determinant, and projections indicate that under the high‐emission pathway (SSP5‐8.5), the high‐suitability ...

Sporophyte structure in Neckeraceae.
, 2012 Example of a perfect and a specialized sporophyte structure in Neckeraceae. a) Homalia trichomanoides gametophyte (i) and sporophytes (ii) with long setas and slightly inclined capsules; b) SEM view of well-developed hypnalean peristome in H ...

The ecology and physiology of fern gametophytes: A methodological synthesis
Applications in Plant Sciences, 2022 All green plants alternate between the gametophyte and sporophyte life stages, but only seed‐free vascular plants (ferns and lycophytes) have independent, free‐living gametophytes.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.Experimentally derived critical thermal maxima (CTmax) are widely used to estimate species' thermal tolerance and increasingly to predict vulnerability to chronic warming. However, evidence shows how CTmax is dynamic and can be strongly influenced by multiple environmental and methodological factors, potentially limiting its application as a fixed ...

Habitat loss does not affect ecological connectivity for a habitat engineer with short dispersal
Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 9, September 2026.Abstract Habitat loss, directly linked to anthropogenic activities, is a key driver of biodiversity loss globally; in combination with habitat fragmentation, it leads to smaller, more isolated population patches. Such changes in habitat configuration can negatively impact population connectivity (i.e., the supply of individuals locally or from ...
