Evolution of halophytes: multiple origins of salt tolerance in land plants
TJ Flowers, HK Galal, L Bromham - Functional Plant Biology, 2010 - CSIRO Publishing
The evolution of salt tolerance is interesting for several reasons. First, since salt-tolerant
plants (halophytes) employ several different mechanisms to deal with salt, the evolution of …

The Devonian landscape factory: plant–sediment interactions in the Old Red Sandstone of Svalbard and the rise of vegetation as a biogeomorphic agent
Abstract The Devonian Period was a crucial interval in the evolution of plants. During its 60
myr duration, it witnessed the successive evolution of roots, wood, trees and forests. In …
