Alice F. Tryon
Alice Faber Tryon(1920–2009)—born Alice Elizabeth Faber—was an American botanist who specialized in the systematics of ferns and other spore-dispersed plants (pteridology). She had two general areas of interest in her work, first incorporating the use of spore surface patterns into the understanding of fern diversity and systematics, and second the fern family Pteridaceae. Tryon completed her master’s thesis on the taxonomic utility of spore characters in the spikemoss genus ''Selaginella'' at the University of Wisconsin in 1945. Her doctoral degree she received at Washington University in 1952; her PhD dissertation was on the diversity and taxonomy of the New World species of ''Pellaea'', a genus of xerically adapted ferns in the Pteridaceae. Throughout her career she worked closely with her husband Rolla M. Tryon Jr.; together they published a complete systematic survey of the ferns, with emphasis on tropical America Her work on spore surface patterns was enhanced by her incorporation of scanning electron microscope images. With Bernard Lugardon, authority on the interior structure of fern spores using transmission electron microscope images, she published a complete survey of fern spore diversity in 1991. Tryon also made significant contributions to the study of fern reproductive biology with her studies of apomixis in ''Pellaea''.
