Fungal data of leafless epiphytic orchids
<p>This dataset contains fungal phylogenetic and community data from the paper: "Qin, Jiao; Zhang, Wei; Feng, Jing‑Qiu; Zhang, Shi‑Bao (2021), Leafless epiphytic orchids share Ceratobasidiaceae mycorrhizal fungi. Mycorrhiza. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00572-021-01043-4". One sequence matrix and the relevant phylogenetic tree were displayed to show the relationships among fungi of Ceratobasidiaceae. The sequence abundances of each mycorrhizal fungal OTU detected from different samples, together with the sampling information, were listed in the uploaded excel.</p>
Leaf water relations in epiphytic ferns
<p>Opportunistic diversification has allowed ferns to radiate into epiphytic niches in angiosperm dominated landscapes. However, our understanding of how ecophysiological function allowed establishment in the canopy and the potential transitionary role of the hemi-epiphytic life form remain unclear. Here, we surveyed 39 fern species in Costa Rican tropical forests to explore epiphytic trait divergence in a phylogenetic context. We examined leaf responses to water deficits in terrestrial, hemi-epiphytic, and epiphytic ferns and related these findings to functional traits that regulate leaf water status. Epiphytic ferns had reduced xylem area (-63%), shorter stipe lengths (-56%), thicker laminae (+41%), and reduced stomatal density (-46%) compared to terrestrial ferns. Epiphytic ferns exhibited similar turgor loss points, higher osmotic potential at saturation, and lower tissue capacitance after turgor loss than terrestrial ferns. Overall, hemi-epiphytic ferns exhibited traits that share characteristics of both terrestrial and epiphytic species. Our findings clearly demonstrate the prevalence of water conservatism in both epiphytic and hemi-epiphytic ferns, via selection for anatomical and structural traits that avoid leaf water stress. Even with likely canalized physiological function, adaptations for drought avoidance have allowed epiphytic ferns to successfully endure the stresses of the canopy habitat.</p>

Epiphytic common core bacteria in the microbiomes of co-located green (Ulva), brown (Saccharina, Gelidium) and red (Grateloupia) macroalgae
<p>We collected specimens of <em>Ulva </em>sp. (green algae), <em>Saccharina </em>sp. (brown algae), <em>Grateloupia </em>sp., and <em>Gelidium </em>sp. (both red algae) during all four seasons from a coastal reef in Weihai, China, and analyzed their surface-colonizing bacteria in comparison to surrounding seawater and sediment controls. 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing, extensive plate cultivation, sequencing of selected strains, and sequencing of 23 metagenomes were performed in this study. Besides composition, we analyzed the potential of phycosphere bacteria to degrade algal polysaccharides and to produce bioactive secondary metabolites. This comprehensive dataset represents a significant stepping stone towards a better understanding of macroalgal phycosphere bacteria and paves the way to functional studies on representative strains.</p>
Different assembly mechanisms of leaf epiphytic and endophytic bacterial communities underlie their higher diversity in more diverse forests
<p><span>Plant microbiomes are known to influence host fitness and ecosystem functioning, but mechanisms regulating their structure are poorly understood. </span><span>Here, we explored the assembly mechanisms of leaf epiphytic and endophytic bacterial communities using a subtropical forest biodiversity experiment. </span></p> <p><span>Both epiphytic and endophytic bacterial diversity increased as host tree diversity increased. However, the increased epiphytic diversity in more diverse forests was driven by greater epiphytic diversity (i.e., greater α diversity) on individual trees, whereas the increased endophytic diversity in more diverse forests was driven by greater dissimilarity in endophytic composition (i.e., greater β diversity) among trees. </span><span>Mechanistically, responses of epiphytes to changes in host diversity were consistent with mass effects, whereas responses of endophytes were consistent with species sorting. </span></p> <p><span><strong>Synthesis</strong>: These results provided novel experimental evidence that biodiversity declines of plant species will lead to biodiversity declines of plant-associated microbiomes, but the underlying mechanism may differ between habitats on the plant host.</span></p>

Epiphytic bryophyte and lichen transplant dataset, Oregon, USA
<p>This dataset consist of epiphytic bryophyte and lichen transplants, which were transplanted along elevation gradient in Oregon, USA in 2010. The data is part of the publication: "Epiphytic bryophyte and lichen transplant niches in changed environments along an elevational gradient in Pacific Northwest conifer forests". The data were collected with a financial support of Fulbright Scholar programme 2009/2010 and processed with a financial support of postdoctoral grant “Epiphyte metapopulation dynamics in boreo-nemoral forest landscape” (Nr. 1.1.1.2/VIAA/3/19/469).</p>
Data from: Novel microsatellite markers for epiphytic bromeliad Tillandsia recurvata L., in an urban landscape in South-eastern Brazil
<p><span>The authors present seven novel microsatellite markers for </span><em>Tillandsia recurvata</em> L. The genome assemble sequences of <em>T. recurvata</em> were obtained from NCBI (7.2Gb) (Sayers <em>et al</em>. 2022). The BioProject Accession and accession numbers are PRJNA701548 and SRX10089449, respectively. The microsatellite identification software Krait (0.5.2) (Du <em>et al</em>. 2018) was used to detect suitable microsatellites, both genome-wide and in the noncoding regions of <em>T. recurvata</em>. The single sequence repeats (SSRs) were refined to a minimum number of seven repeats of di-, tri-, or tetra-nucleotide repeat motifs. These sequences were further limited to SSRs of more than 100bp in length and low GC content (<50%). Krait (0.5.2) (Du <em>et al</em>. 2018) was also used to design the primers for the selected SSR sequences, in conjunction with the integrated Primer3 software. The criteria for primer selection included: a primer length of 18-26bp, an optimal melting temperature (Tm) of 54-59°C and GC content of <50%. These designed primers were single-plexed and amplified using the following PCR cycle: initial denaturation (95°C for 3 min), 34 cycles of 95°C for 30s, annealing for 30s (JP01-JP12: 54°C, 4873TD + 35251TD: 56°C, 19286TD: 53°C, 5044TD + 186664TD + 214633TD: 58°C), 72°C for 1 min and a final extension of 72°C for 5 mins. The authors make this information available to other researchers, to continue the investigation of epiphyte genetics.</p>
