Polyploidy is a major speciation process in vascular plants, and is postulated to be particularly important in shaping the diversity of extant ferns. However, limitations in the availability of bi-parental markers for ferns have greatly limited phylogenetic investigation of polyploidy in this group. With a large number of allopolyploid species, the genus Botrychium is a classic example in ferns where...
Botrychium campestre and B. lineare have, since their original descriptions, been considered closely related due to their morphological similarity. Although B. lineare was initially thought to be very rare, subsequent discoveries of many additional populations, especially in the Rocky Mountains and Sierra ranges, have afforded the opportunity to analyze hundreds of specimens on the basis of allozyme...
The Botrychium lunaria (Ophioglossaceae) complex worldwide includes the named species B. lunaria, B. crenulatum, B. tunux, and B. yaaxudakeit. These species have been distinguished from each other morphologically and genetically. This study further investigates the genetic diversity and geographic distribution of this complex, examining a large number of plants worldwide. Enzyme electrophoresis was...
This paper examines the ecology, frond and spore morphology, gametophytes, and molecular biology ofThelypteris burksiorum to reveal its taxonomic affinities and phytogeographic origin. The species is endemic to Winston County in northern Alabama (U.S.A.) and only occurs in cave-like rockhouse habitats. A related species,T. pilosa, is widespread in central and southern Mexico, Guatemala, and Honduras...
