Abstract:
The tropical zone of Mount Ungaran is a tropical forest which are rich in diversity of flora. One of them is Bryophytes. Most of the Bryophytes of tropical forest are epiphytes. The largest group of Bryophytes is mosses (Bryophyta). However, research about epiphytic mosses in this area are sparse, so it is only a few information given about epiphytic mosses in this area. The aim of this research was to identify epiphytic mosses in tropical zone of Mount Ungaran altitudes 750, 980, and 1.100 meters above sea level, and also to determine the frequency attendance of species in this study site. This research was conducted in April through November 2012. Specimens was carried out at Laboratory of Ecology and Biosistematics, Department Biology, Faculty of Science and Mathematics, Diponegoro University, Semarang, Indonesia. The results shown there are 35 species mosses. Diversity of epiphytic moses most commonly found at altitude 1.100 meters above sea level, as many as 17 species, while at altitudes 750 and 980 meters above sea level was found 15 species. Family Hypnaceae is the family with highest number of species (6 species) and has highest total amount of frequency attendance by 16,13%. Hypnum plumaeforme and Luisierella barbula were the species which had wide distribution. Both of them were found at all three altitudes. Species with the highest total amount of frequency attendance is Hylocomium splendens from family Hylocomiaceae with total amount by 9,68%. Key words : epiphytic mosses, Mount Ungaran, tropical zone

Abstract:
A composition of 16 lipid samples of sphagnum and true mosses (Bryales) growing at an average annual temperature ranging from -9.1 °C to 1.5 °C is investigated by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The individual composition and content of n-alkanes, fatty n-acids and their esters, n-alkane-2-ones, aldehydes, farnesylfuranes, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), tocopherols, squalene, steroids, sesqui-, di- and triterpenoids of these mosses are determined. True mosses differ from sphagnum mosses in their lower content of n-alkanes, n-alkan-2-ones, n-aldehydes, tocopherols and cyclic terpenoids, and a higher content of PAHs. Campesterol prevails among steroids of true mosses, while stigmasterol and sitosterol dominate in sphagnum mosses. Sitosterol prevails in sphagnum mosses growing in areas with a negative average annual temperature. An increase in the temperature of the habitat results in a decrease in the relative content of n-alkanes with odd number of carbon atoms in the molecule in true mosses, and a slight decrease in their average chain length in sphagnum mosses. It is shown that terpenoids are the most dependent on natural habitat conditions of mosses. This is indicated by the content of squalene, sesqui- and diterpenoids, the ratio of hydrocarbons to oxygen-containing structures of cyclic triterpenoids, and that of compounds from series of perhydropicene and cyclopentapeperhydrochryzene. The increased humidity of habitat of a moss eliminates the effect of temperature. The stability of composition of n-alkanes and n-alkan-2-ones of sphagnum mosses developing under various conditions makes it possible to consider these compounds as potential chemotaxonomic markers of sphagnum mosses in peat deposits.

Abstract:
The analysis of the taxonomic composition and abundance of mosses in the larch forests of the Chita region (in the Olengui and Beklemishevsky forest areas) of the Trans-Baikal Territory is given. Leaf stemmed mosses (real mosses) are the largest class of mosses. The purpose of this work is the taxation of moss cover in the forests of the Trans-Baikal Territory. Mosses were determined in the laboratory by the traditional anatomical and morphological method. A ceno-tic characteristic is given for each moss species, distribution and occurrence are indicated. In the bryoflora of two forest areas of the Trans-Baikal Territory, most mosses are defined as widespread species growing in several plant zones of the Holarctic. Such species, as a rule, are identified as the dominant moss cover of plant communities. In the forests of the Trans-Baikal Territory, mosses do not form a continuous cover. The harsh and dry climate causes desiccation of sandy and rocky-gravelly soils. Under the canopy of such forests there are no conditions for the development of moss cover. Therefore, the species composition of mosses is poor, and the projective coverage on the accounting sites ranges from 10 % to 45 %. In forest areas, mosses grow in open habitats: on wastelands, cuttings, burning, soil outcrops, sometimes on rocks and dead wood.

Abstract:
Abstract. Mosses, as major components of later successional biological soil crusts (biocrusts), play many critical roles in arid and semiarid ecosystems. Recently, some species of desiccation-tolerant mosses have been artificially cultured with the aim of accelerating the recovery of biocrusts. Revealing the factors that influence the vegetative propagation of mosses, which is an important reproductive mode of mosses in dry habitats, will benefit the restoration of moss crusts. In this study, three air-dried desiccation-tolerant mosses (Barbula unguiculata, Didymodon vinealis, and Didymodon tectorum) were hermetically sealed and stored at five temperature levels (0, 4, 17, 25, and 30 °C) for 40 days. Then, the vegetative propagation and physiological characteristics of the three mosses were investigated to determine the influence of storage temperature on the vegetative propagation of desiccation-tolerant mosses and the mechanism. The results showed that the vegetative propagation of the three mosses varied with temperature. The most variation in vegetative propagation among storage temperatures was observed in D. tectorum, followed by the variation observed in B. unguiculata. In contrast, no significant difference in propagation among temperatures was found in D. vinealis. The regenerative capacity of the three mosses increased with increasing temperature from 0 to 17 °C, accompanied by a decrease in malondialdehyde (MDA) content, and decreased thereafter. As the temperature increased, the chlorophyll and soluble protein contents increased in B. unguiculata but decreased in D. vinealis and D. tectorum. As to storage, the MDA and soluble sugar contents increased after storage. The MDA content of the three mosses increased at each of the investigated temperatures by more than 50 % from the initial values, and the soluble sugar content became higher than before in the three mosses. The integrity of cells and cell membranes is likely the most important factor influencing the vegetative propagation of desiccation-tolerant mosses. A 40-day storage period caused cell injury. Our results suggest that storage temperature can enhance or suppress such injury and change the regenerative capacity of the three mosses. The data indicate that the suitable storage temperature is 4 °C for B. unguiculata and 17 °C for both D. vinealis and D. tectorum.

Abstract:
The aim of this research was to assess how mosses took up nitrogen (N), assimilated this N and sensed N status. Research into the short term foliar uptake and assimilation of N investigated the rapid induction of nitrate reductase activity (NRA) in two species of moss Mnium hornum and Sphagnum fimbriatum. NRA was induced in both species in just 15 minutes. Tissue nitrate (NO3) content was measured over this period and it was shown that the species had contrasting NO3" storage capabilities. Both species also differed in their long term N use. S. fimbriatum was a less nitrophilous species and died after approximately 80 days N-deprivation but M. hornum had a tremendous capacity to sustain itself and survived for in excess of 450 days. It was suggested from electrophysiological measurements and microscopy that S. fimbriatum had a lower NO3" storage capacity due to the lack of a distinct vacuole or storage compartment for NO3". M. hornum had both cytosolic and vacuolar compartments and was more able to store NO3", even in the longer term, being more similar in structure to a higher plant. Ammonium (Nlt induced NRA in the absence of NO3" in both mosses. Electrophysiological measurements, using pH-selective microelectrodes, showed a depolarisation of the membrane potential and acidification of intracellular compartments in moss cells upon addition of NH/ an example being a pH change from pH 7.11 to 5.84 in the cytosol of M. hornum. N uptake mechanisms in these mosses supported the classical pH-stat model and current thinking on plant N transporter mechanisms in higher plants whereby the addition of NH/ caused an acidification of the cytosol, in turn inducing NRA to stabilise intracellular pH. This project brought together the biochemistry, physiology and localised changes in metabolite pools and pH to explain why these mosses behaved differently.

Abstract:
Our first aim was to identify and quantify Biological Volatile Organic Compound (BVOC) emissions, specifically emissions of isoprene, from the moss Polytrichum juniperinum during its earliest stage of life. Isoprene emission from mosses could be a significant component of the total global budget of BVOC emissions. Data concerning the spatial and temporal variability of these emissions are lacking due to poor characterization of the physical and biological factors controlling isoprene synthesis in both vascular and non-vascular plants. We found that P. juniperinum in its early life stage (protonema) can emit isoprene at detectable levels at day five after spore germination. These results suggest that protonema is capable of isoprene emission, shown here for the first time, and media affects emission rates. We saw a negative trend with leaf emergence and protonema growth. Chlorophyll fluorescence ratio had a positive correlation with isoprene emission, and isoprene emission was both temperature and light dependent in early protonema. Our second aim was to determine the effects of sex and sexual expression on isoprene emission in mosses. Sex is a biologically costly, but it can result in genetic adaptability and variety for resulting offspring. Using three Polytrichaceae species, we measured isoprene emission between plants sexually expressing and non-expressing and between male and female moss plants. We found that non-sexually expressing gametophytes had significantly higher isoprene emission than gametophytes expressing sex, suggesting that sex expression may be costly and that additional resources are allocated to isoprene emission when plants are not reproducing. Males emitted higher levels of isoprene than females, but surprisingly this difference occurred only when plants were not expressing sex. We found species and sex-specific differences in chlorophyll fluorescence ratio (CFR) and relative electron transport rate (RETR). Our third aim was to investigate and categorize the effect of nitrogen addition on isoprene emission of P. juniperinum by creating an artificial nitrogen gradient with ammonium nitrate addition (NH4NO3). Current rates of anthropogenic N deposition are altering many biogeochemical processes. In these changing environments, increased nitrogen availability alters plant phenology, physiology, and the allocation of resources, but no information is available on whether additional N increases isoprene emissions in mosses. We used a manipulative experiment to measure the effects of nitrogen addition on moss isoprene emission, as well as on moss morphology and reproductive effort. We found site-specific differences in our morphological and physiological measurements. Isoprene emission was site, sex, and N addition specific, with the highest isoprene emission seen from our mid-level N addition, in both female- and male-majority pots. We found significant treatment and sex-specific interactions among our sites and within sites. We saw the highest reproductive effort counts from non-sexual expressive gametophytes, followed by high sporophyte count from female-majority pots. We also saw chlorophyll fluorescence ratio (CFR) differences between sites and treatments, but not between sexes.

Abstract:
Substantial ambiguities still remain concerning the broad backbone of moss phylogeny. I surveyed 17 slowly evolving plastid genes from representative taxa to reconstruct phylogenetic relationships among the major lineages of mosses in the overall context of land-plant phylogeny. I first designed 78 bryophyte-specific primers and demonstrated that they permit straightforward amplification and sequencing of 14 core genes across a broad range of bryophytes (three of the 17 genes required more effort). In combination, these genes can generate sturdy and well-resolved phylogenetic inferences of higher-order moss phylogeny, with little evidence of conflict among different data partitions or analyses. Liverworts are strongly supported as the sister group of the remaining land plants, and hornworts as sister to vascular plants. Within mosses, besides confirming some previously published findings based on other markers, my results substantially improve support for major branching patterns that were ambiguous before. The monogeneric classes Takakiopsida and Sphagnopsida likely represent the first and second split within moss phylogeny, respectively. However, this result is shown to be sensitive to the strategy used to estimate DNA substitution model parameter values and to different data partitioning methods. Regarding the placement of remaining nonperistomate lineages, the [[[Andreaeobryopsida, Andreaeopsida], Oedipodiopsida], peristomate mosses] arrangement receives moderate to strong support. Among peristomate mosses, relationships among Polytrichopsida, Tetraphidopsida and Bryopsida remain unclear, as do the earliest splits within sublcass Bryidae. A Funariidae, [Timmiidae, [Dicranidae, Bryidae]]] arrangement is strongly supported, as are major relationships within subclasses Funariidae and Dicranidae. I also reconstructed the phylogeny of the nonperistomate moss family Andreaeaceae, with a focus on costate taxa, using two complementary sets of plastid markers and taxa. The major subgenera (Andreaea and Chasmocalyx) and sections of Andreaea (Andreaea and Nerviae) are rejected as monophyletic. Well-supported lineages include clades comprising: (1) Andreaea nivalis and A. rigida (northern hemisphere members of subgenus Chasmocalyx) and A. blyttii (section Nerviae); (2) most of the remainder of Nerviae; (3) a mixture of costate and ecostate species from Chasmocalyx, Nerviae, all sampled members of section Andreaea, and subgenus Acroschisma. Relationships among the major lineages, including the root of the family, are all well supported.

Abstract:
In arctic tundra ecosystems mosses dominant the vegetation in terms of productivity and diversity.  Despite this, mosses are often overlooked in studies of tundra ecology.  However, evidence from this thesis suggests that mosses maybe integral to the functioning of these systems.  Mosses insulate soil keeping it cooler than air temperature, an effect more apparent under deeper moss.  The effects of the moss layer on soil characteristics alter conditions for microbial populations resulting in higher nitrogen availability in soil under shallow moss.  This thesis shows that the role of mosses in determining vascular plant success may dictate many higher plant interactions.  There are both positive and negative effects of the moss layer on vascular plant growth.  The relationship between positive and negative impacts of the moss layer on vascular plants is species specific, meaning that moss cover may be a key determinate of vascular plant community structure.  Climatic warming and herbivory are important drivers of vegetation change in the Arctic.  This thesis shows that grazing by reindeer and grubbing by geese is detrimental to moss cover.  As mosses insulate the soil, a reduction in depth or integrity increases soil temperatures and enhances microbial activity and thus nitrogen availability.  This in conjunction with addition of nutrients from faeces enhances vascular plant productivity to the further detriment of mosses.  Warming increases soil temperature and accelerates decomposition, but has little affect on either biomass of moss or vascular plants.  Moss grubbing has a greater negative effect on mosses in a warmed environment.  This thesis concludes that mosses are integral to the current functioning of tundra heaths.

Lepfodon smithii (Leptodontaceae) and Pterogonium gracile (Leucodontaceae) are widespread and disjunctly distributed moss species, that in South Africa are confined to forest patches believed to be relics of vast forests that existed before the Pleistocene glaciation period. These two species exhibit similar distribution and ecologies and frequently co-occur. Wardia hygrometrica is a southwestern Cape endemic that is restricted to streams within the kloofs that the forests generally occupy. In an attempt to trace the species histories and their subsequent colonization of forest patches, two molecular markers, internal transcribed spacer (ITS) nuclear rDNA and trnL-F cpDNA were employed.

Full text
Abstract:
Nathaniel Hawthorne’s collection of short stories, Mosses from an Old Manse, serves as his contribution to the philosophical discussions on Transcendentalism in Concord, MA in the early 1840s. While Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, and the other individuals involved in the Transcendental club often seem to readily accept the positions presented in Emerson’s work, it is never so simple for Hawthorne. Repeatedly, Hawthorne’s stories demonstrate his difficulty in trying to identify his own opinion on the subject. Though Hawthorne seems to want to believe in the optimistic potential of the spiritual and intellectual ideal presented in Emersonian Transcendentalism, he consistently dwells on the evil and blackness that may be contained in the human heart. The collection of short stories written while Hawthorne lived in Concord and surrounded himself with those dominant literary figures represents the clearest articulation of his ambivalent position on Transcendentalism.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter seeks to cultivate the art of attentiveness to more-than-human ways of being and knowing that have ended up in the margins of our everyday attention. It problematises the human-centred idea of marginality by engaging in multispecies storytelling with local mosses in the Pyhä-Luosto National Park in northern Finland. The authors explore the possibilities of including non-human voices in the place-making and tourism development processes, posing questions on mobility and wellbeing and growth from mosses’ point of view. Following in the footsteps of Robin Wall Kimmerer, the chapter asks what could be learnt from mosses that have succeeded in surviving in nearly every ecosystem on earth longer than any other plant groups. The authors introduce multispecies storytelling as a genre that encourages us to slow down, attune with alternative rhythms and temporalities, listen to more-than-human concerns and further mobilise inspiration, activism and hope. While mosses are generally perceived as something insignificant, one of their many secrets seems to lie in their ability to take full advantage of being slow, small and flourishing in the shade. Hence, by attuning to mosses’ life-sustaining agencies, the authors propose smallness and slowness as key features in living well on Earth.

Abstract:
Mosses are collectors of anthropogenic pollution and are suitable as bioindicators for the content of heavy metals and radionuclides in the air. Due to their lack of a real root system, the main way nutrients are supplied to them is through air moisture. Airborne substances are absorbed and retained in the moss, even when these plants are thousands of kilometers from the source of pollution. In regard to radionuclides, mosses are very indicative. The subject of the research are mosses from Livingstone Island, South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. The presence of natural and man-made radionuclides is investigated. The presence of Natural and man-made radionuclides were determined by means of gamma-spectrometry. The content of Pb-210, U-238, Ra-226, Pb-214, Bi-214, Th-232, K-40, Cs-137 was determined. The activity of cesium-137 is between 3.5±1.2 and 11±2 Bq/kg, for Pb-210 - between 68±7 и 163±15 Bq/kg. Results from samples taken in 2012 and 2022 are compared. This allows to assess the current state of the Antarctic ecosystem and to ascertain changes over a 10-year period. The research confirms that even the most distant points on the globe are contaminated with radionuclides.

Abstract:
To study the assessment of the state of forest ecosystems on the level of biodiversity of mosses and vascular plants in the Voronezh upland oak grove, a transect from the watershed to the reservoir was laid. The influence of geomorphological factors on the spore component – mossy and vascular plants-is considered. Taxonomic, ecological-biological, and geographical analyses of the flora were carried out. Geobotanical survey methods were used to assess the state of phytocenoses. The regularities in the ecotopic distribution of plants are revealed, taking into account the score and the projective coverage, and the parameters for assessing the biodiversity of ecosystems are proposed and used in research. Mosses and vascular plants manifest themselves differently in different phytocenoses, often without reflecting the features of landscape and ecological conditions. But, as the results showed, the majority of plant species (from 55.9% and above) belong to mesophytes. As a result, low indicators of species richness, species density, and generic.

Abstract:
The method of bioindication of ecosystems by heavy metals is presented. The ecological significance of this method in comparison with other types of bioindication is confirmed by a number of advantages. The mechanism of accumulation of heavy metals in mosses is emphasized. The evaluation of modern laboratory methods for the determination of heavy metals in vegetation was carried out. The method of determination of heavy metals (copper, cobalt, lead) in mossy is presented. On the basis of modern research, the importance of both the selection of mosslike species and the described methodology for the determination of heavy metals in the atmosphere is shown, which confirms the relevance of this topic.

Abstract:
The article discusses new data obtained in the study of the functions of a conservative peptide of cabbage plants, which is encoded by the microRNA156a. Comparative analysis of the nucleotide sequences of the promoter regions of these genes allowed us to identify a highly conserved 42-residue block located before the starting point of pri-miR156a transcription at a distance of 210-260 base pairs. It was found that promoter fragments containing a highly con-served block have a significantly higher ability to bind miPEP156a in vitro. We carried out mutagenesis of a highly conserved promoter block in its central part, which includes a tetramer of TG dinucleotides. It has been shown that the introduction of mutations into the promoter tetramer of TG dinucleotides significantly reduces the affinity of the promoter DNA to miPEP156a. The miPEPs revealed in plants have been found only in dicotyledons. The question of how miPEPs are distributed in other plant taxa is very important for understanding the evo-lutionary origin of such micropeptides. As an initial approach, we searched for taxonomically conservative miPEPs in mosses, since microRNAs have been studied in a great detail in the case of Physcomitrium patens moss. For two genes in the region preceding the Ppt-pre-miR160a sequence, rather short open reading frames were found that encoded peptides having a clear similarity of amino acid sequences in the central region. Importantly, such highly con-served peptide block homologous to that encoded by Ppt-miPEP160a gene was detected in short proteins encoded in pri-miR160a in almost 20 Bryopsida mosses.

Marinshaw, Richard J., and Hazem Qawasmeh. Characterizing Water Use at Mosques in Abu Dhabi. RTI Press, April 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.3768/rtipress.2020.mr.0042.2004.

Abstract:
In areas where Muslims constitute much of the population, mosques can account for a significant portion of overall water consumption. Among the various uses of water at mosques, ablution (i.e., ritual cleansing) is generally assumed to be the largest, by far. As part of an initiative to reduce water consumption at mosques in Abu Dhabi, we collected data on ablution and other end uses for water from hundreds of mosques in and around Abu Dhabi City. This paper takes a closer look at how water is used at mosques in Abu Dhabi and presents a set of water use profiles that provide a breakdown of mosque water consumption by end use. The results of this research indicate that cleaning the mosque (primarily the floors) and some of the other non-ablution end uses at mosques can account for a significant portion of the total water consumption and significantly more than was anticipated or has been found in other countries.
