Abstract
The occurrence of vessel members in the roots and the possible occurrence of sieve-tube members in the rhizome is reported for the first time in the heterosporous fern Marsilea quadrifolia. This discovery adds a new instance of parallel evolution of vessels in vascular plants.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
