Inferring the impacts of evolutionary history and ecological constraints on spore size and shape in the ferns
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Applications in Plant Sciences"
DOI: 10.1002/aps3.11339
Abstract: Premise In the ferns, cell size has been explored with spores, which are largely uniform within species, produced in abundance, and durable. However, spore size and shape have been variously defined, and the relationship of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/cyto.a.24335
Abstract: Genome size information is sparse across fungi, with information being available for less than 2000 species. So far, most records have been obtained using static, microscope‐based cytometry methods or derived from genome sequencing projects. Flow… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.10009
Abstract: Abstract Angiosperms present an astonishing diversity of genome sizes that can vary intra‐ or interspecifically. The remarkable new cytogenomic data shed some light on our understanding of evolution, but few studies were performed with insular… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00227-021-03826-x
Abstract: The genome size (C-value) of a species indicates the total amount of DNA included in its haploid chromosomes. It is one of the fundamental characteristics that relate closely to the evolution of organisms. Information on… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00606-017-1402-2
Abstract: Apomixis is the ability of plants to produce asexual seeds, which are clones of the mother plant. The phenomenon of apomixis is tightly linked to ploidy, where diploids lack apomixis and reproduce sexually, while higher… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00606-019-01581-7
Abstract: Prospero autumnale (Hyacinthaceae) is taxonomically intricate geophyte species complex with a circum-Mediterranean distribution. In contrast to the extraordinary karyological diversity within P. autumnale complex, morphological variation is limited, and thus, reliable taxonomically diagnostic traits are… read more here.
