A drought-driven model for the evolution of obligate apomixis in ferns: evidence from pellaeids (Pteridaceae).
(American journal of botany, 2021-02-23)<h4>Premise</h4>Xeric environments impose major constraints on the fern life cycle, yet many lineages overcome these limitations by evolving apomixis. Here, we synthesize studies of apomixis in ferns and present an evidence-based ... -
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 ...
