Hornwort genera

Asia

Asia is the largest continent in the world by both land area and population.

Australia

Australia, officially the Commonwealth of Australia, is a country comprising the mainland of the Australian continent, the island of Tasmania, and numerous smaller islands.

See Megaceros and Australia

Chloroplast

A chloroplast is a type of membrane-bound organelle known as a plastid that conducts photosynthesis mostly in plant and algal cells.

See Megaceros and Chloroplast

Dendroceros

Dendroceros is a genus of hornworts in the family Dendrocerotaceae. Megaceros and Dendroceros are hornwort genera.

See Megaceros and Dendroceros

Dendrocerotaceae

The Dendrocerotaceae is the only family of hornworts in the order Dendrocerotales.

See Megaceros and Dendrocerotaceae

Elater

An elater is a cell (or structure attached to a cell) that is hygroscopic, and therefore will change shape in response to changes in moisture in the environment.

See Megaceros and Elater

Gametophyte

A gametophyte is one of the two alternating multicellular phases in the life cycles of plants and algae.

See Megaceros and Gametophyte

Genus

Genus (genera) is a taxonomic rank above species and below family as used in the biological classification of living and fossil organisms as well as viruses.

See Megaceros and Genus

Helix

A helix is a shape like a cylindrical coil spring or the thread of a machine screw.

See Megaceros and Helix

Hornwort

Hornworts are a group of non-vascular Embryophytes (land plants) constituting the division Anthocerotophyta.

See Megaceros and Hornwort

Monoicy is a sexual system in haploid plants (mainly bryophytes) where both sperm and eggs are produced on the same gametophyte, in contrast with dioicy, where each gametophyte produces only sperm or eggs but never both.

See Megaceros and Monoicy

Nothoceros

Nothoceros is a genus of hornworts in the family Dendrocerotaceae. Megaceros and Nothoceros are hornwort genera.

See Megaceros and Nothoceros

Phaeomegaceros

Phaeomegaceros is a genus of hornworts in the family Dendrocerotaceae. Megaceros and Phaeomegaceros are hornwort genera.

See Megaceros and Phaeomegaceros

Species

A species (species) is often defined as the largest group of organisms in which any two individuals of the appropriate sexes or mating types can produce fertile offspring, typically by sexual reproduction.

See Megaceros and Species

Spore

In biology, a spore is a unit of sexual (in fungi) or asexual reproduction that may be adapted for dispersal and for survival, often for extended periods of time, in unfavourable conditions.

See Megaceros and Spore

Sporophyte

A sporophyte is the diploid multicellular stage in the life cycle of a plant or alga which produces asexual spores.

See Megaceros and Sporophyte

Stoma

In botany, a stoma (stomata, from Greek στόμα, "mouth"), also called a stomate (stomates), is a pore found in the epidermis of leaves, stems, and other organs, that controls the rate of gas exchange between the internal air spaces of the leaf and the atmosphere.

See Megaceros and Stoma

Thallus

Thallus (thalli), from Latinized Greek, meaning "a green shoot" or "twig", is the vegetative tissue of some organisms in diverse groups such as algae, fungi, some liverworts, lichens, and the Myxogastria.

See Megaceros and Thallus
