Fern allies

Spores from ferns and fern allies can be ideal sources for obtaining tissue of these plants. Although fronds and rhizomes are the most used, spores and their resulting gametophytes have also been used.12 The American Fern Society maintains a spore exchange program, and information can be obtained by consulting the Bulletin of the American Fern Society. 

Other applications of flavonoid data to the understanding of plant phylogeny include bryophytes, ferns and fern allies (Markham, 1988), gymnosperms (Niemann, 1988), monocotyledons (Williams and Harbome, 1988) and dicotyledons (Giannasi, 1988).
