Antheridiogen controls spatial dynamics of sex expression in naturally occurring gametophytes of the tree fern Cyathea multiflora

Published in American Journal of Botany, 2022

In this paper, we document the existence of a putative antheridiogen system in natural gametophytic colonies of the tree fern Cyathea multiflora, the first such report in a tree fern

Low-trunk epiphytic fern gametophyte and sporophyte occurrence is influenced by moss height and density in a Costa Rican lowland tropical rain forest

Published in International Journal of Plant Sciences, 2021

This study examines the potential for moss to be a prime competitor with epiphytc fern gametophyhtes while at the same time prvoiding a facilitative environment for fern sexual reproduction
