The green lineage (Viridiplantae) comprises the green algae and their descendants the land
plants, and is one of the major groups of oxygenic photosynthetic eukaryotes. Current …

Chlorella, the archetype of unicellular green algae, is a high-performance primary producer
in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. Under the simple spherical morphology of Chlorella …

Plant growth regulators (PGRs) play an important role in mediating growth and stress
responses in plants. Light influences PGRs concentrations in vascular plants. The effect of …

Chlorella and Stichococcus are morphologically simple airborne microalgae, omnipresent in
terrestrial and aquatic habitats. The minute cell size and resistance against environmental …

Arboreal herbivory is rare among mammals. The few species with this lifestyle possess
unique adaptions to overcome size-related constraints on nutritional energetics. Sloths are …

This volume covers the freshwater, aerophytic, and terrestrial green algae of the
Ulvophyceae, one of the main classes of green algae. Although most of this diversity is …

Nearly one‐fourth of the lichen‐forming fungi associate with trentepohlialean algae, yet their
genetic diversity remains unknown. Recent work focusing on free‐living trentepohlialean …

Background Adaptation of mammals to terrestrial life was facilitated by the unique vertebrate
trait of body hair, which occurs in a range of morphological patterns. Keratin associated …

The Xenarthra, which are endemic to the Americas, consist of two distinct clades, the Pilosa
(anteaters and sloths) and the Cingulata (armadillos). The association between xenarthrans …

Abstract Study Objectives: Interspecific variation in sleep measured in captivity correlates
with various physiological and environmental factors, including estimates of predation risk in …
