Abstract:
AbstractCycads represent one of the most ancient lineages of living seed plants. Identifying genomic features uniquely shared by cycads and other extant seed plants, but not non-seed-producing plants, may shed light on the origin of key innovations, as well as the early diversification of seed plants. Here, we report the 10.5-Gb reference genome of Cycas panzhihuaensis, complemented by the transcriptomes of 339 cycad species. Nuclear and plastid phylogenomic analyses strongly suggest that cycads and Ginkgo form a clade sister to all other living gymnosperms, in contrast to mitochondrial data,

Cycads have developed a complex root system categorized either as normal or coralloid roots. Past literatures revealed that a great diversity of key microbes is associated with these roots. This recent study aims to comprehensively determine the diversity and community structure of bacteria and fungi associated with the roots of two Cycas spp. endemic to China, Cycas debaoensis Zhong & Chen and Cycas fairylakea D.Y.

Abstract:
Two species of cycads in Florida are invariably pollinated by beetles. The native Florida Zamia pumila L. is pollinated by a snout weevil, Rhopalotria slossoni Schaeffer, and a clavicorn beetle, Pharaxonotha zamiae Blake. An introduced cycad, Z. furfuracea L. fil., is pollinated by the snout weevil, R. mollis Sharp, apparently introduced from Mexico along with its host. Observations and experiment show that zamias are dependent upon pollinating beetles for their reproduction, and, in turn, the pollinating insects are dependent upon the cycads for brood places, food and shelter.

Abstract:
In South Africa, the greatest threat to cycad populations is the illegal removal of wild plants for landscaping purposes and collector's gardens, resulting in declining populations that are already threatened with extinction. Radiocarbon dating in conjunction with stable isotopes and trace element concentrations could provide the essential evidence needed in court when prosecuting poachers and collectors. The aim of this study was to determine the feasibility of using radiocarbon dating, stable isotopes and trace element concentrations to identify specimens removed from the wild. To test this

Abstract:
Approximately 62% of the 355 cycad species in the world are classified as threatened with extinction. The African genus, Encephalartos, has a total of 65 species, approximately 70% of which are threatened. This status emphasizes the need to conserve these species; however, the recalcitrant nature of cycads seeds makes it difficult to conserve using conventional seed banking methods. Recalcitrant seeds have a short lifespan and cannot be dried or stored for prolonged periods as they become non-viable when they lose moisture. While studies on cryopreservation for conserving cycad germplasm and b

The emission of cone odours and heat production coincide with periods of insect activity on the cones...

Abstract:
Cycads first appeared about 300 million years ago and historical data indicates that they survived fluctuations of global temperature and carbon dioxide concentrations and reached peak abundance during periods where temperature and carbon dioxide concentrations were much higher than the present conditions as well as the predicted increased levels. With Africa being one of the most vulnerable regions to climate change and in the absence of an evaluation of predicted impacts of climate change on cycads, this study aims to contribute to our understanding of responses of Encephalartos longifolius

In addition to habitat loss and fragmentation, habitat degradation can have important consequences for biodiversity and population persistence, including effects on ecological and genetic processes beyond decreased demographic viability and the loss of genetic variation. Particularly interesting is the potential for evolutionary changes and adaptation to degraded habitats, that can affect population viability even in the short-term. Here, I explore how environmental changes after habitat degradation affect the evolutionary dynamics of populations of the rainforest cycad Zamia fairchildiana, sp

I use this system as a way of echoing natural structures, as well as a way of focusing my attention. I create multiple small pieces and present them in large, gridded formats.
