A molecular phylogeny of the fern family Pteridaceae: assessing overall relationships and the affinities of previously unsampled genera.
(Molecular phylogenetics and evolution, 2007-09)The monophyletic Pteridaceae accounts for roughly 10% of extant fern diversity and occupies an unusually broad range of ecological niches, including terrestrial, epiphytic, xeric-adapted rupestral, and even aquatic species. ... -
A novel chloroplast gene reported for flagellate plants.
(American journal of botany, 2018-01)PREMISE OF THE STUDY:Gene space in plant plastid genomes is well characterized and annotated, yet we discovered an unrecognized open reading frame (ORF) in the fern lineage that is conserved across flagellate plants. METHODS:We ... -
A revised generic classification of vittarioid ferns (Pteridaceae) based on molecular, micromorphological, and geographic data
(Taxon, 2016-08-01)© International Association for Plant Taxonomy (IAPT) 2016. Vittarioid ferns compose a well-supported clade of 100-130 species of highly simplified epiphytes in the family Pteridaceae. Generic circumscriptions within the ... -
A worldwide phylogeny of Adiantum (Pteridaceae) reveals remarkable convergent evolution in leaf blade architecture
(Taxon, 2018-06-01)© International Association for Plant Taxonomy (IAPT) 2018, All rights reserved. Adiantum is among the most distinctive and easily recognized leptosporangiate fern genera. Despite encompassing an astonishing range of leaf ... -
Adiantumshastense, a new species of maidenhair fern from California.
(PhytoKeys, 2015)A new species of Adiantum is described from California. This species is endemic to northern California and is currently known only from Shasta County. We describe its discovery after first being collected over a century ... -
Baja: A New Monospecific Genus Segregated from Cheilanthes s. l. (Pteridaceae)
(Systematic Botany, 2019-09-06) -
Maidenhair ferns, adiantum, are indeed monophyletic and sister to shoestring ferns, vittarioids (Pteridaceae)
(Systematic Botany, 2016-01-01)© 2016 by the American Society of Plant Taxonomists. Across the tree of life, molecular phylogenetic studies often reveal surprising relationships between taxa with radically different morphologies that have long obscured ... -
Patterns of diversification in the xeric-adapted fern genus myriopteris (Pteridaceae)
(Systematic Botany, 2014-01-01)Strong selective pressures imposed by drought-prone habitats have contributed to extensive morphological convergence among the 400 + species of cheilanthoid ferns (Pteridaceae). As a result, generic circumscriptions based ... -
Phylogeny and relationships of the neotropical Adiantum raddianum group (Pteridaceae)
(Taxon, 2016-12-01)© International Association for Plant Taxonomy (IAPT) 2016. With more than 200 species, the maidenhair fern genus Adiantum is among the top ten most diverse fern genera. Adiantum is pantropical in distribution and, due to ... -
Species relationships and farina evolution in the cheilanthoid fern genus Argyrochosma (Pteridaceae)
(Systematic Botany, 2011-07-01)Convergent evolution driven by adaptation to arid habitats has made it difficult to identify monophyletic taxa in the cheilanthoid ferns. Dependence on distinctive, but potentially homoplastic characters, to define major ... -
The evolutionary history of ferns inferred from 25 low-copy nuclear genes.
(Am J Bot, 2015-07)UNLABELLED: • PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Understanding fern (monilophyte) phylogeny and its evolutionary timescale is critical for broad investigations of the evolution of land plants, and for providing the point of comparison ... -
Transcriptome-mining for single-copy nuclear markers in ferns.
(PloS one, 2013-01)BACKGROUND:Molecular phylogenetic investigations have revolutionized our understanding of the evolutionary history of ferns-the second-most species-rich major group of vascular plants, and the sister clade to seed plants. ... -
Using Plastid and Nuclear DNA Sequences to Redraw Generic Boundaries and Demystif Species Complexes in Cheilanthoid Ferns.
