Previous work demonstrated that the 'copper mosses' Mielichhoferia elongata and M. mielichhoferiana are genetically and morphologically distinct, but hybridize at five sites in Scandinavia and the United States where they grow in mixed populations. The pre ...

With approximately 13 000 species, the Bryophyta compose the second most diverse phylum of land plants. Mosses share with the Marchantiophyta and Anthocerotophyta a haplodiplobiontic life cycle that marks the shift from the haploid-dominated life cycle of ...

Introduction The three lineages of bryophytes, mosses, liverworts, and hornworts, compose successful groups of early embryophytes. The mosses are estimated to include some 12 700 species (Crosby et al. 2000), the liverworts approximately 6000–8000 extant s ...
