  • A contribution to the knowledge of selected Marchantiaceae taxa in China 

    Zheng, Tian-Xiong; Long, David G. (Taylor and Francis, 2023-07)
    IntroductionThe family Marchantiaceae is often cited as a representative group of liverworts, partly because Marchantia polymorpha L. is well known as a model plant. Here, we re-examine and provide taxonomic notes on five ...
  • Prey preference in a kleptoplastic dinoflagellate is linked to photosynthetic performance 

    Yamada, Norico; Lepetit, Bernard; Mann, David G.; Sprecher, Brittany N.; Buck, Jochen M.; Bergmann, Paavo; Kroth, Peter G.; Bolton, John J.; Dąbek, Przemysław; Witkowski, Andrzej; Kim, So Yeon; Trobajo, Rosa (Springer Nature, 2023-06-30)
    Dinoflagellates of the family Kryptoperidiniaceae, known as “dinotoms”, possess diatom-derived endosymbionts and contain individuals at three successive evolutionary stages: a transiently maintained kleptoplastic stage; a ...
