In the Early Silurian, cryptospore abundance and diversity diminished abruptly as trilete spores appeared, became abundant, and underwent rapid diversification. This change coincides approximately with the appearance of vascular plant megafossils and probably represents the origin and adaptive radiation of vascular plants. We have obtained a diverse trilete spore occurrence from the Late Ordovician that suggests that vascular plants originated and diversified earlier than previously hypothesized, in Gondwana, before migrating elsewhere and secondarily diversifying.}}, author = {{STEEMANS, Philippe and LE HÉRISSÉ, Alain and MELVIN, J. and MILLER, Merrell and Paris, Florentin and Verniers, Jacques and Wellman, C.H.}}, issn = {{0036-8075}}, journal = {{Science}}, language = {{eng}}, pages = {{353--353}}, title = {{Origin and radiation of the earliest vascular land plants}}, url = {{http://doi.org/10.1126/science.1169659}}, volume = {{324}}, year = {{2009}}, } </pre> </div> <div role="tabpanel" class="tab-pane" id="tab-metrics"> <dl class="roomy subtle"> <dt>Altmetric</dt> <dd><a href="https://www.altmetric.com/explorer/outputs?scope=all&identifier=10.1126%2Fscience.1169659" target="_parent"><strong>View in Altmetric</strong></a></li> <dt>Web of Science</dt> <dd>Times cited: <a class="external" href="http://gateway.isiknowledge.com/gateway/Gateway.cgi?GWVersion=2&SrcAuth=Alerting&SrcApp=Alerting&DestApp=WOS&DestLinkType=CitingArticles;KeyUT=000265221600032" target="_parent"><strong class="wos-times-cited"></strong></a></dd> <script type="text/javascript" nonce="413a72b"> $.getJSON('https://biblio.ugent.be/info/times-cited?ut=000265221600032', function(data) { $('.wos-times-cited').text(data.times_cited); }); </script> </ul> </div> </div> </div> </article> <aside class="col-sm-3"> <div class="bg-tertiary padding-20"> <dl class="subtle roomy"> <dt>Subject</dt> <dd><a class="plain" href="https://biblio.ugent.be/publication?q=subject+exact+%22Earth+and+Environmental+Sciences%22">Earth and Environmental Sciences</a></dd> <dt>Year</dt> <dd itemprop="datePublished">2009</dd> <dt>Publication type</dt> <dd> Journal Article (Original Article) </dd> <dt>Publication status</dt> <dd>published</dd> <dt> Journal title </dt> <dd><a class="plain" href="https://biblio.ugent.be/publication?q=parent+exact+%22Science%22">Science</a></dd> <dd>Science</dd> <dt>ISSN</dt> <dd><a class="plain" href="https://biblio.ugent.be/publication?q=issn+exact+%220036-8075%22">0036-8075</a></dd> <dt>Volume</dt> <dd>324</dd> <dt>Pages</dt> <dd>353 - 353</dd> <dt>DOI</dt> <dd><a href="http://doi.org/10.1126/science.1169659" target="_parent" class="external">10.1126/science.1169659</a></dd> <dt>Language</dt> <dd><a class="plain" href="https://biblio.ugent.be/publication?q=language+exact+eng" itemprop="inLanguage">English</a></dd> <dt>UGent publication?</dt> <dd>yes</dd> <dt>UGent classification</dt> <dd><a class="plain" href="https://biblio.ugent.be/classification/A1">A1</a></dd> <dt>Web of Science type</dt> <dd>Article</dd> <dt>Web of Science id</dt> <dd><a href="http://gateway.isiknowledge.com/gateway/Gateway.cgi?GWVersion=2&SrcAuth=Alerting&SrcApp=Alerting&DestApp=WOS&DestLinkType=FullRecord;KeyUT=000265221600032" target="_parent" class="external">000265221600032</a></dd> <dt>JCR category</dt> <dd><a class="plain" href="https://biblio.ugent.be/publication?q=jcr.category+exact+%22MULTIDISCIPLINARY+SCIENCES%22">MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENCES</a></dd> <dt>JCR impact factor</dt> <dd>29.747 (2009)</dd> <dt>JCR rank</dt> <dd>2/48 (2009)</dd> <dt>JCR quartile</dt> <dd>1 (2009)</dd> <dt>Copyright statement</dt> <dd><i>Information pending</i></dd> <dt>id</dt> <dd>697223</dd> <dt>Handle</dt> <dd><a href="http://hdl.handle.net/1854/LU-697223" target="_parent">http://hdl.handle.net/1854/LU-697223</a></dd> <dt>Date created</dt> <dd>2009-06-14 16:48:50</dd> <dt>Date last changed</dt> <dd>2024-07-09 11:42:32</dd> </dl> </div> </aside> </div> </div> <footer class="page-footer fluid-container"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-xs-12"> <div class="bg-primary padding-20"> <div class="mbottom-small border-bottom"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-4"> <h2 class="h4">Contents</h2> <ul class="linklist linklist-inverted"> <li><a href="https://biblio.ugent.be/publication?q=type<>researchData">Publications</a> <li><a href="https://biblio.ugent.be/publication?type=researchData">Datasets</a> <li><a href="https://biblio.ugent.be/person">Authors</a> <li><a href="https://biblio.ugent.be/organization">Organizations</a> <li><a href="https://biblio.ugent.be/project">Projects</a> </ul> </div> <div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-4"> <h2 class="h4">Support</h2> <ul class="linklist linklist-inverted"> <li><a href="https://onderzoektips.ugent.be/en/tips/00002094">FAQ</a> <li><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.ugent.be/intranet/en/research/impact/schol-publishing">Open Access</a> <li><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.ugent.be/intranet/en/research/impact/schol-publishing/oa-support.htm">Support and trainings</a> <li><a href="https://biblio.ugent.be/doc/api">Download & API</a> </ul> </div> <div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-4"> <h2 class="h4">Contact</h2> <ul class="linklist linklist-inverted list-unstyled"> <li> Do you have any questions regarding the use of the Academic Bibliography?
