| Current analyses include only one sample per group from mosses, liverworts, and hornworts and lack a major lineage of land plants, lycophytes. |
|
| Some of these plants are thalloid much like early liverworts, hornworts and mosses might have been. |
|
| Both gametangia form from a stereotyped series of divisions of a terminal apical cell, unlike the gametangia of liverworts and hornworts. |
|
| Liverworts, hornworts, mosses, clubmosses, resurrection plants, quillworts, horsetails, ferns, cycads, ginkgos, conifers, and flowering plants are all plants. |
|
| The valley is home to many liverworts, mosses, hornworts and vascular plants. |
|
| Trees, liverworts, hornworts, true mosses, ferns, cycads, and all flowering plants are agreed upon by all to be Plantae. |
|
| Unlike hornworts and liverworts, the sporophyte grows to maximum height before sporogenesis occurs. |
|
| This similarity indicates a closer-than-expected relationship between green algae and hornworts, Niklas says. |
|
| Liverworts, mosses and hornworts spend most of their lives as gametophytes. |
|
| In this analysis, hornworts are sister to vascular plants and liverworts are sister to all other land plants, including the hornworts and mosses. |
|
| Other studies suggest a monophyletic group comprising liverworts and mosses, with hornworts being sister to vascular plants. |
|
| As in liverworts and hornworts, the haploid gametophyte generation is the dominant phase of the life cycle. |
|
| Introduction to Bryophytes is a noteworthy, up to date, text on the biology, from an evolutionary perspective, of liverworts, hornworts, and mosses. |
|
| Mosses are commonly confused with lichens, hornworts, and liverworts. |
|
| Hornworts have no specialized structures to aid spore dispersal but a unique intercalary meristem results in relatively long period of spore production. |
