Adaptive Transcriptome Profiling of Subterranean Zokor, Myospalax baileyi, to High- Altitude Stresses in Tibet.
(Scientific reports, 2018-03-16)Animals living at high altitudes have evolved distinct phenotypic and genotypic adaptations against stressful environments. We studied the adaptive patterns of altitudinal stresses on transcriptome turnover in subterranean ... -
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 ... -
Phylogeny and divergence time estimates for the fern genus Azolla (Salviniaceae)
(International Journal of Plant Sciences, 2007-10-22)A phylogeny for all extant species of the heterosporous fern genus Azolla is presented here based on more than 5000 base pairs of DNA sequence data from six plastid loci (rbcL, atpB, rps4, trnL-trnF, trnG-trnR, and rps4-trnS). ... -
Phylogeny and evolution of ferns (monilophytes) with a focus on the early leptosporangiate divergences.
(American journal of botany, 2004-10)The phylogenetic structure of ferns (= monilophytes) is explored here, with a special focus on the early divergences among leptosporangiate lineages. Despite considerable progress in our understanding of fern relationships, ...
