In this article we will discuss about the morphology of anthoceros with the help of a suitable diagram. Anthocerotae, or hornwort, is a distinct evolutionary group of thalloid liverworts, without an internal differentiation of thallus, each cell of which has a single large chloroplast and an associated pyrenoid. The ‘horn’ describes the sporophyte, a tapered […]

In this article we will discuss about the life cycle of bryophytes with the help of diagrams. The life cycle of a bryophyte involves an alternation of generations—the gametophyte and sporophyte, which are different in morphology (heteromorphic) and differ in their level of ploidy (heteroploid). The gametophyte or gamete-producing generation is distinct in its morphology […]

in this article we will discuss about the modes of reproduction in psilotum with the help of diagrams. Stout aerial branches bear large conspicuous sporangia (Fig. 7.1 A). Each sporangium is a 3-lobed structure (Fig. 7. 1B, C). It is borne on a forked appendage. It has been described as: (a) Trilocular sporangium (b) Trisporangiate […]
