Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is one of the most important food crops with an urgent need for increase in its production to feed the growing world. Triticum timopheevii (2n = 4x = 28) is an allotetraploid wheat wild relative species containing the At and...

The evolution of the duckweed ionome mirrors losses in structural complexity (2024)
Journal Article
Smith, K. E., Zhou, M., Flis, P., Jones, D., Bishopp, A., & Yant, L. (in press). The evolution of the duckweed ionome mirrors losses in structural complexity. Annals of Botany, Article mcae012. https://doi.org/10.1093/aob/mcae012

Background and Aims The duckweeds (Lemnaceae) consist of 36 species exhibiting impressive phenotypic variation, including the progressive evolutionary loss of a fundamental plant organ, the root. Loss of roots and reduction of vascular tissues in re... Read More about The evolution of the duckweed ionome mirrors losses in structural complexity.
