Sažetak
A comprehensive understanding of the metabolomic basis for multicellular vascular plant growth, development and adaptation is crucial in helping define how our ecosystem(s) and life forms came into existence. In order to better understand the evolution of chemical diversity in plants, we are using Psilotum nudum (Psilotaceae) - a seedless, rootless, leafless, fern-like vascular plant – as a model system. Using several complementary analytical approaches we obtained broad profiles of metabolites occurring in the Psilotum rhizome (underground stem), stem and spore-producing synangium at various developmental stages. The results of these analyses are discussed in the context of the known chemical constituents of extant seedless vascular plants. Our data have the potential to shed light onto how early vascular plants evolved the chemical diversity observed in the plant kingdom today.
