How might plant life look different on other theoretical planets?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the evolution of plant life and fungi on other planets, emphasizing how environmental factors like a planet's position relative to its sun and moon could influence the development and flourishing of these organisms. There is a specific interest in finding articles that explore these themes, with a reference to a 2008 Scientific American article titled "The Color of Plants on Other Worlds," which examines how extraterrestrial conditions might affect plant characteristics and adaptations. The conversation highlights the intersection of astrobiology and botany, focusing on the potential diversity of life forms in varying cosmic environments.

Got interested on how plants (and other things such as fungi) could evolve on other planets along with how plant life may flourish depending on the position of the planet to the sun, moon etc.

I'm looking for any article talking about this or something similar.
