An introduction to the conservation physiology of bryophytes is given. The insights into the
problems, solutions and examples of the physiological approach to conservation within …

Recently, there has been an increasing interest in the chemistry and biological potential of
mosses, since a large number of biologically active compounds have been found within …

A central problem in evolutionary biology is to identify the forces that maintain genetic
variation for fitness in natural populations. Sexual antagonism, in which selection favours …

For the first time, the moss biomonitoring technique and inductively coupled plasma–atomic
emission spectrometric (ICP-AES) analytical technique were applied to study multi-element …

Like all other plants, bryophytes suffer from various threats in a rapidly changing
environment. Compared with vascular plants, they have received significantly less …

Hypnum cupressiforme Hedw. is the main species for Moss surveys (ICP Vegetation
programme) in Southeastern Europe and is widely distributed in the region. In addition to …

We monitored trace metals and nitrogen using naturally growing moss Hypnum
cupressiforme Hedw. in urban and peri-urban forests of the City Municipality of Ljubljana …

• Premise of the study: Bacterial contamination is a major problem in plant tissue culture,
resulting in loss of experimental strains or preventing use of field‐collected isolates. Here we …

The study gives the first report of In vitro culture of the moss Thamnobryum alopecurum and
the insight into the problems of axenicaly culturing this bryophyte and the conditions for …

Bryophytes are widely used in monitoring environmental changes and various types of
pollution. Features such as longevity and direct intake by the whole body make them very …
