Today the cryptogamic herbarium consists of 7000 lichens and 1500 bryophytes and continues to grow. |
|
On the opposite side of the island is the richest area for calcicolous bryophytes in the county. |
|
The remaining morphospecies are organs of cycads, ginkgophytes, lycopods, sphenopsids, and bryophytes. |
|
Copia group sequences have been found in diverse species, including single-cell algae, bryophytes, gymnosperms, and angiosperms. |
|
The values measured lie within the mainstream range for bryophytes of similar habitats and of vascular mesophytes. |
|
The cuticle of terrestrial vascular plants and some bryophytes is covered with a complex mixture of lipids, usually called epicuticular waxes. |
|
The primary objective of this study was to document the lichens, bryophytes and vascular plants present at the High Line. |
|
A large number of invertebrates, bryophytes, and lichens are also likely to depend on large dead trees. |
|
Simple trichomes are present on aerial surfaces of most angiosperms and on some gymnosperms and bryophytes. |
|
These plots were colonized significantly more often by bryophytes and vascular plants with lighter diaspores, dispersed by the wind or by animals. |
|
Secondly, reference books, for example the major avifaunas and standard works on the identification of Britain's flowers, bryophytes, moths and other beasties I may encounter. |
|
These features also occur in spores of bryophytes and some pteridophytes. |
|
The gene duplication event that gave rise to class I and class II knox gene superfamilies occurred before the divergence between bryophytes and spermatophytes. |
|
Diacylglyceryltrimethylhomoserine is known to be an important component of cryptogamic plants, including bryophytes, but its physiological role is still uncertain. |
|
Like other bryophytes, liverworts are small, herbaceous plants of terrestrial ecosystems. |
|
Both green algae and bryophytes have chlorophyll a and b, and the chloroplast structures are similar. |
|
Distinct adaptations observed in bryophytes have allowed plants to colonize Earth's terrestrial environments. |
|
Depending on the specific plant texture, bryophytes have been shown to help improve the water retention and air space within soil. |
|
Other bryophytes produce chemicals that are antifeedants which protect them from being eaten by slugs. |
|
|
A number of physical features link bryophytes to both land plants and aquatic plants. |
|
Algae formed 9 per cent of the total new species while pteridophytes and bryophytes contributed to 2 and 3 per cent, respectively. |
|
Called bryophytes, the species is known to stay dried-out during long, cold winters and then come back to life after a time. |
|
The researchers have observed samples of 400-year-old plants known as bryophytes flourishing under laboratory conditions, the BBC reported. |
|
Molecular phylogenetic studies conclude that bryophytes are the earliest diverging lineages of the extant land plants. |
|
Selenium in soils, spermatophytes and bryophytes around a Zn-Pb smelter, New South Wales, Australia. |
|
Even in other bryophytes, the sporophyte is persistent and disperses spores over an extended period. |
|
The bryophytes are a natural and ancient group of plants that appear sister to protracheophytes and tracheophytes. |
|
In following sections it describes archaea, bacteria, viruses, fungi, the protists, bryophytes, tracheophytes, gymnosperms and angiosperms. |
|
Some bryophytes, such as the liverwort Marchantia, create elaborate structures to bear the gametangia that are called gametangiophores. |
|
Like algae and land plants, bryophytes also produce starch and contain cellulose in their walls. |
|
Salinity responses of halophytic and non-halophytic bryophytes determined by chlorophyll fluorometry. |
|
Because of their small size and often delicate structure, bryophytes have a poor fossil record, dating back only about 290 million years. |
|
A 2014 study concluded that composition biases were responsible for these differences and that the bryophytes are monophyletic. |
|
Peat is a fuel that is produced from dried bryophytes, typically sphagnum. |
|
Secondly, the sporophyte phase of bryophytes remains attached to its gametophyte parent throughout its development to maturity and often past spore release. |
|
Some extinct land plants, such as the horneophytes, are not bryophytes, but also are not vascular plants because, like bryophytes, they do not have true vascular tissue. |
|
More recently, phylogenetic research has questioned whether the bryophytes form a monophyletic group and thus whether they should form a single taxon. |
|
Characteristics of bryophytes make them useful to the environment. |
|
Climate change is also predicted to have a large impact on Tundra vegetation, causing an increase of shrubs, and having a negative impact on bryophytes and lichens. |
