  4. 4. Spikemoss patterns : Systematics and historical biogeography of Selaginellaceae

    Author : Stina Weststrand; Petra Korall; Michael J. Donoghue; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; classification; historical biogeography; lycophytes; nomenclature; phylogeny; Selaginella; Selaginellaceae; systematics; fylogeni; historisk biogeografi; klassifikation; lummerväxter; nomenklatur; Selaginella; Selaginellaceae; systematik; Biologi med inriktning mot systematik; Biology with specialization in Systematics;

    Abstract : Selaginellaceae, spikemosses, is a heterosporous plant family belonging to the lycophytes. With an estimated age of some 350 million years, the family is historically important as one of the oldest known groups of vascular plants. Selaginellaceae is herbaceous with a worldwide distribution. However, the majority of the ca. READ MORE

  5. 5. Patterns of recollection : the documentary meets digital media
