Meeting Abstract S1-6 Friday, Jan. 4 10:30 – 11:00 Diversity and genetics of plant-cyanobacteria symbioses LI, Fay-Wei; Boyce Thompson Institute fl329@cornell.edu http://www.fernway.net Plant symbiosis with nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria is a unique form of mutualistic association that has independently evolved in diverse lineages including a few species of bryophytes, ferns, cycads, and one small genus of flowering plants. Compared […]
Calm vs panicked contrasting responses of desert-derived and aquatic green microalgae during desiccation and rehydration
Meeting Abstract S1-8 Friday, Jan. 4 11:30 – 12:00 Calm vs. panicked: contrasting responses of desert-derived and aquatic green microalgae during desiccation and rehydration PEREDO, EL*; CARDON, ZG; Marine Biological Laboratory; Marine Biological Laboratory elperedo@mbl.edu http://www.mbl.edu/ecosystems/research-staff/elena-l-peredo/ Desiccation tolerance in the vegetative state (DT) is an essential adaptive trait for colonization of land. DT has evolved independently in […]
