I love the Markus's segments.
Dr. Markus Eichhorn is awesome.
I love this series. Beautifully shot.
As a plant biochemist I'm a bit confused by the statement that the first land plants looked like ferns. It is well established that mosses and hornworts were the first plants on land, followed by the development of the lycophytes (spikemosses) and then the ferns. Mosses had existed for around a million years before the ferns showed up.
Can we have a more in-depth video on plant evolution?
I read an article once about the insane number of genes that trees have. I would like tree guy to tell me more about a trees genes and why/how the have so many.
Nicely done -- I particularly appreciate the derivations of the names used. Keep it up, please.
Very interesting. Generally in the media the focus seems to be more on the evolution of animals so it's good to see something on plant evolution. Thanks!
3:53
Bug crawling on hand, keeps perfectly still.
Now that's a professional.
Very interesting.
I hope we see loads more from Markus. He has a nice way about him, makes for a pleasant video.
Great video! Would love to see longer more in-depth explanation though.
But when will we hear about plant revolution? The triumphant rise of the flowering plants over the cyad overlords?
Excellent. I would love to see longer in-depth videos about plant evolution.
Interesting! So the magnolia is like the missing link between the two types of plants. Producing cones, as well as fruits. Just like the platypus laying eggs and breast-feeding.
yay plants!
new channel, brady! plants!
Interesting video!!! Because plants get their energy from photosynthesis could their evolutionary path be based on photon energy and therefore physics?
Det är
Brilliant video, learned a great deal. You forgot something at 3:37 though. Does she love you, or love you not?
how about an update on "ash dieback"??
I wish I had his knowledge. It would be awesome to just walk through nature and know how everything works.
Very interesting. More on plant evolution, please!
Now that was interesting.
"ferns, they make a canny noise, like"
The Tree Professor!
Very interesting, this took me back to Biology class :-)
I was wondering about pine cone seeds the other day. What causes the pine cone to open and release the seeds? Is it the drying effect?
i can has biophile?
You state that the second great innovation in plant evolution was the seed. What about the incorporation of lignin into the plant's structure? That allowed trees to grow taller...
Magnolia is the state tree of Mississippi and the state flower of Louisiana and Mississippi,
so, do I understand correctly that Ferns (pre-date / have no) seeds? How do they reproduce?
Super sad this video's only ~four minutes.
