Azolla: A Review of Its Biology and Utilization

TL;DR: This paper attempts to review and synthesize past and recent findings concerning the biology and utilization of Azolla in hopes that this will facilitate increased future collaborative research on this “green gold mine.”
Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogeny of Marsileaceous Ferns and Relationships of the Fossil Hydropteris pinnata Reconsidered.

TL;DR: The phylogeny of Marsileaceae is investigated here using information from morphology and rbcL sequence data, which resulted in two most‐parsimonious trees that differ only in the placement of the fossil Hydropteris.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogeny and Divergence Time Estimates for the Fern Genus Azolla (Salviniaceae)

TL;DR: A phylogeny for all extant species of the heterosporous fern genus Azolla is presented here based on more than 5000 base pairs of DNA sequence data from six plastid loci, in agreement with other recent molecular phylogenetic hypotheses that support the monophyly of sections Azolla and Rhizosperma and the proposed relationships within section Azolla.

An annotated checklist of the vascular flora of Guines-Bissau (West Africa)

TL;DR: A checklist of Guinea-Bissau vascular flora is presented in this paper, based on the inventory of herbarium material and on recent collections, of which 1459 are autochthonous, belonging to 696 genera.
Journal Article

A review of some ecological factors affecting the growth of Azolla spp.

TL;DR: Understanding the habitat requirements of Azolla is very helpful for managing this aquatic fern, also for decision making in the context of wetland restoration and conservation management.
