Flavonoids are extensively distributed secondary metabolites in land plants. They play a
critical role in plant evolution from aquatic to terrestrial and plant adaption to ultraviolet …

The flavonoids, one of the largest classes of plant secondary metabolites, are found in
lineages that span the land plant phylogeny and play important roles in stress responses …

Bryophytes are the dominant vegetation in the Antarctic continent. They have suffered more
unpleasant ultraviolet radiation due to the Antarctic ozone layer destruction. However, it …

Life on land exposes plants to varied abiotic and biotic environmental stresses. These
environmental drivers contributed to a large expansion of metabolic capabilities during land …

Anthropogenic climate change is causing observable changes in Antarctica and the
Southern Ocean including increased air and ocean temperatures, glacial melt leading to sea …

The Antarctic continent has extreme natural environment and fragile ecosystem. Mosses are
