Non-vascular Seedless Plants02:26

Non-vascular Seedless Plants

The diverse plant life on Earth—consisting of nearly 400,000 species—can be divided into three broad categories based on biological characteristics: nonvascular, seedless vascular, and seed plants.
Epiphytes, Parasites, and Carnivores02:40

Epiphytes, Parasites, and Carnivores

Plants often form mutualistic relationships with soil-dwelling fungi or bacteria to enhance their roots’ nutrient uptake ability. Root-colonizing fungi (e.g., mycorrhizae) increase a plant’s root surface area, which promotes nutrient absorption. While root-colonizing, nitrogen-fixing bacteria (e.g., rhizobia) convert atmospheric nitrogen (N2) into ammonia (NH3), making nitrogen available to plants for various biological functions. For example, nitrogen is essential for the biosynthesis of the...

Adaptations that Reduce Water Loss

Though evaporation from plant leaves drives transpiration, it also results in loss of water. Because water is critical for photosynthetic reactions and other cellular processes, evolutionary pressures on plants in different environments have driven the acquisition of adaptations that reduce water loss.
Introduction to Seed Plants03:40

Introduction to Seed Plants

Most plants are seed plants—characterized by seeds, pollen, and reduced gametophytes. Seed plants include gymnosperms and angiosperms.

Area of Science:

  • Ecology
  • Environmental Science
  • Biodiversity Research

Background:

  • Alien Invasive Species (AIS) present major ecological, social, and economic challenges worldwide.
  • Fragmented data across platforms hinders international efforts to harmonize AIS information.
  • The Celtic Fringe, a distinct European region, has a well-documented flora crucial for invasion studies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To create the first unified checklist and georeferenced database of AIS for the entire Celtic Fringe.
  • To standardize and integrate fragmented AIS data for improved accessibility and usability.
  • To support AIS management, conservation planning, and research on invasion dynamics.

Main Methods:

  • Aggregating occurrence data from publicly available datasets.
  • Developing a harmonized AIS checklist of 271 taxa by integrating national and international sources.
  • Mapping georeferenced occurrences to a 10x10 km UTM grid resolution.

Main Results:

  • A comprehensive database containing 164,974 georeferenced AIS occurrences for the Celtic Fringe.
  • The database includes taxonomic, floristic, and administrative metadata for diverse applications.
  • The unified checklist and database cover 271 AIS taxa within the study region.

Conclusions:

  • The developed resource provides a standardized and harmonized dataset for AIS management.
  • This initiative facilitates transnational cooperation in addressing invasive species.
  • The database will aid in conservation planning and advancing research on invasion ecology.
