Whether this Email: k.field@sheffield.ac.uk association is mutualistic, and how its functioning was affected by the fall in atmospheric CO2 Received: 3 June 2014 concentration that followed plant terrestrialization in the Palaeozoic, remains unknown. Accepted: 6 August 2014 We measured carbon-for-nutrient exchanges between Haplomitriopsida liverworts and Mucoromycotina fungi under simulated mid-Palaeozoic (1500 ppm) and near-contemporary New Phytologist (2014) (440 ppm) CO2 concentrations using isotope tracers, and analysed -
Liverworts, Mosses and Hornworts of Afghanistan - Our Present Knowledge
ISSN 2336-3193 Acta Mus. Siles. Sci. Natur., 68: 11-24, 2019 DOI: 10.2478/cszma-2019-0002 Published: online 1 July 2019, print July 2019 Liverworts, mosses and hornworts of Afghanistan - our present knowledge Harald Kürschner & Wolfgang Frey Liverworts, mosses and hornworts of Afghanistan ‒ our present knowledge. – Acta Mus. Siles. Sci. Natur., 68: 11-24, 2019. Abstract: A new bryophyte checklist for Afghanistan is presented, including all published records since the beginning of collection activities in 1839 ‒1840 by W. Griffith till present. Considering several unidentified collections in various herbaria, 23 new records for Afghanistan together with the collection data can be added to the flora. Beside a new genus, Asterella , the new records include Amblystegium serpens var. serpens, Brachythecium erythrorrhizon, Bryum dichotomum, B. elwendicum, B. pallens, B. weigelii, Dichodontium palustre, Didymodon luridus, D. tectorum, Distichium inclinatum, Entosthodon muhlenbergii, Hygroamblystegium fluviatile subsp. fluviatile, Oncophorus virens, Orthotrichum rupestre var. sturmii, Pogonatum urnigerum, Pseudocrossidium revolutum, Pterygoneurum ovatum, Schistidium rivulare, Syntrichia handelii, Tortella inflexa, T. tortuosa, and Tortula muralis subsp. obtusifolia . Therewith the number of species increase to 24 liverworts, 246 mosses and one hornwort. In addition, a historical overview of the country's exploration and a full biogeography of Afghan bryophytes is given. Key words: Bryophytes, checklist, flora, phytodiversity. Introduction Recording, documentation, identification and classification of organisms is a primary tool and essential step in plant sciences and ecology to obtain detailed knowledge on the flora of a country. In many countries, such as Afghanistan, however, our knowledge on plant diversity, function, interactions of species and number of species in ecosystems is very limited and far from being complete. -

C. asirense FREY& KURSCHNERisreduced to synonymy with C. davidai CATCHESIDE,andthe geographical range of C. laevipilum THER. & TRAB.is extended to Europe. Phylogenetic trends are interpreted on the basis of two main evolutionary lines associated with the presence or absence of hyaline hair-points on the leaves. A twe1fth species is transferred to Microcrossidium GUERRA& CANO,gen. nov., as M. apiculatum (MAGILL)GUERRA& CANO,combonova, because of differences in stem anatomy, peristome configuration, and spore morphology. The first revision of the genus Crossidium JUR. was earried out by DELGADILLO (1975), who reeognized eight taxa: C. roseiWILLIAMS, C. seriatum CRUM & STEERE, C. aberrans HOLZ. & BARTR., C. geheebii (BROTH.)

Originally published in Bulletin of the Buffalo Society of Natural Sciences 36: 81–115. 1998 Repaginated here. Reissued online September 11, 2012. A PHYLOGRAMMATIC EVOLUTIONARY ANALYSIS OF THE MOSS GENUS DIDYMODON IN NORTH AMERICA NORTH OF MEXICO Richard H. Zander Division of Botany, Buffalo Museum of Science, 1020 Humboldt Parkway, Buffalo, New York 14211 [Presently: Missouri Botanical Garden, St. Louis, MO, USA] Abstract: A key is presented for the 22 known species of Didymodon (Musci) in North America north of Mexico, with taxonomic commentaries for each. A phylogram combining PCA ordination and a cladogram shows evident morphological convergence between five pairs of species. Six species are interpreted as surviving ancestors. Phylogenetic analysis is an assumption-laden and belief-oriented attempt at reconstructing a past unique conditional chain of events. Through misapplication of the theory of statistical relevance, the fine structure of trees of maximum synapomorphy is generally artificial and antiparsimonious; also, trees of maximum likelihood are often not probabilistic estimations. Cladistic analysis, however, may be useful under certain conditions in devising general classifications and in phylogrammatic analysis. The moss genus Didymodon as expanded by Saito (1975) has proven large and complex in North America (e.g., studies by Zander 1978a, 1981, 1994). Work on the genus Didymodon for the bryophyte volume of the Flora of North America (FNA Editorial Committee 1993) is sufficiently advanced that an annotated key to the 22 known species might be profitably presented in advance of FNA final publication four or five years from now. A phyletic evolutionary study addresses apparent morphological convergence, while the statistical assumptions and methods used for obtaining modern detailed classifications are reviewed. -

Functional Analysis of Liverworts in Dual Symbiosis with Glomeromycota and Mucoromycotina Fungi Under a Simulated Palaeozoic
The ISME Journal (2016) 10, 1514–1526 © 2016 International Society for Microbial Ecology All rights reserved 1751-7362/16 OPEN www.nature.com/ismej ORIGINAL ARTICLE Functional analysis of liverworts in dual symbiosis with Glomeromycota and Mucoromycotina fungi under a simulated Palaeozoic CO2 decline Katie J Field1, William R Rimington2,3,4, Martin I Bidartondo2,3, Kate E Allinson5, David J Beerling5, Duncan D Cameron5, Jeffrey G Duckett4, Jonathan R Leake5 and Silvia Pressel4 1School of Biology, Faculty of Biological Sciences, University of Leeds, Leeds, UK; 2Department of Life Sciences, Imperial College London, London, UK; 3Jodrell Laboratory, Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, UK; 4Department of Life Sciences, Natural History Museum, London, UK and 5Department of Animal and Plant Sciences, Western Bank, University of Sheffield, Sheffield, UK Most land plants form mutualistic associations with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi of the Glomeromycota, but recent studies have found that ancient plant lineages form mutualisms with Mucoromycotina fungi. Simultaneous associations with both fungal lineages have now been found in some plants, necessitating studies to understand the functional and evolutionary significance of these tripartite associations for the first time. We investigate the physiology and cytology of dual fungal symbioses in the early-diverging liverworts Allisonia and Neohodgsonia at modern and Palaeozoic-like elevated atmospheric CO2 concentrations under which they are thought to have evolved. We found enhanced carbon cost to liverworts with simultaneous Mucoromycotina and Glomeromycota associations, greater nutrient gain compared with those symbiotic with only one fungal group in previous experiments and contrasting responses to atmospheric CO2 among liverwort–fungal symbioses. In liverwort–Mucoromycotina symbioses, there is increased P-for-C and N-for-C exchange efficiency at 440 p.p.m. -
A CHECKLIST of MONTANA MOSSES (1880–2018) January 3, 2020
A CHECKLIST OF MONTANA MOSSES (1880–2018) January 3, 2020 Joe C. Elliott Conservation Biology Research, Missoula, Montana Andrea K. Pipp Montana Natural Heritage Program, 1515 E Sixth Ave, Helena, Montana 59601 INTRODUCTION Montana has one of the richest recorded moss floras of the western United States (Eckel et al. 1997), even though large areas of the state remain under surveyed. The Flora of North America (FNA) volumes 27 (2007) and 28 (2014) include 1,402 species found in the continental United States, Canada, Greenland, and St. Pierre and Miquelon, of which 508 species have been recorded in Montana. Including varieties and subspecies, Montana has 522 moss taxa. The rich moss flora is due to the habitat and climatic diversity across the state and a long history of bryological exploration that began in the late 1800s. This checklist is a revision to the second preliminary checklist (Elliott 1993), which listed 408 taxa. The substantial increase in the number of moss taxa since 1993 indicates that, as in much of the western United States, our knowledge of the Montana moss flora continues to expand with increased field and herbarium studies. The discovery of mosses in eastern North America appears to be reaching saturation, but this is not true for western North America, where the accumulation of new species has continued to rise steeply over the last three decades (Carter et al. 2016). Another publication titled the “History, Biogeography, and Species of Montana Mosses (1880-2018)” will be published in Volume 36, Issue 2 of Evansia, a peer-reviewed quarterly of The American Bryological and Lichenological Society (2019).
