The impact of genomic structural variation on meiotic pairing and segregation in Beta vulgaris subsp. maritima
A method of ND FISH was employed to identify structural variation in Beta vulgaris subsp. maritima and to evaluate the impact of this variation on meiotic behaviours, specifically synapsis and segregation of chromosomes. An intercalary region (pEV1) on the chromosome IV arm exhibited asymmetry in signals, allowing individual homologues to...Mian, Sahr

DNA barcoding of Pinanga (Arecaceae) of Borneo
The successful application of DNA barcoding as a tool for species discrimination and identification depends on the adequacy of barcode reference libraries of well identified species. Next generation sequencing (NGS) methods have proven to be more promising especially for herbarium specimen containing degraded DNA than conventional barcoding. To make a...Odufuwa, Phebian

Unravelling the secrets of fern spore germination: what are their thermal thresholds and how will they cope with climate change
Ferns are an important and diverse group of plants. Recruitment from spore to gametophyte represents the first crucial stage in a fern’s development and is responsible for the regeneration of natural populations. However, research into the thermal thresholds for spore germination is deficient and quantitative predictions about how germination may...Steed-Mundin, Olivia
