Lectures 23-24: Intro to land plants, bryophytes, seedless vascular plants (29.1-3)!

Lecture 23: The Bryophytes

6 main traits of bryophytes!

I. Life cycle has dominant gametophyte phase!

II. No xylem or phloem!

III. No roots (limited to live close to water)!

IV. No leaves!

V. No cuticle (no resistance to water loss)!

VI. Sporophyte is dependent on the female gametophyte for nutrition, this stage is short-lived!

"Polytrichum haircap moss thallus:!

Entire thallus can absorb water, minerals, have gas exchange and undergo photosynthesis

"Mature Sporophyte:!

-Foot: receives nutrients transported from the female gametophyte!

-Seta: elongated stalk that raises up spore bearing capsule for dispersal!

-Sporangium: site of meiosis; where a young sporophyte cell (2n) becomes spores (n).!

"Under cap: peristome, open and closes with humidity to disperse and dispense spores,

wind is good. The spore giving rise to a new (n) phase.!

Dioecious - 2 houses, male gametes and female gametes; separate male and female plant

gametophytes.!

Gametophore: sexually mature gametophyte!

Gamete transfer occurs with motile sperm transported to the archegonium by water (down

the neck, to the venter, to the egg cell (archegonia)!

"Bryophytes:

-Life cycle is restricted to moist habitats because of a lack of cuticle and roots, and water

required for gamete transfer.!

-Adapted to land but only in wet or seasonally wet environments!

"Lichens: associated with bryophytes (often in harsh environments), where there is no

way to sexually reproduce both symbionts at the same time!

A symbiotic relationship with!

-Fungal mycelium: hyphae, rep. disc, injected historia; soredia (packed for environment),

producing unique compounds!

-Algal cells:!

-Can break down rock and are important ﬁrst colonizers and soil builders!

Ex: Thalloid (crustose) lichen to rock/foliose to leafy/fructose to reindeer moss, fungi is high in

protein!

Question 1

The key innovation that allowed for plant survival on land, seenin the first land plants and all others after, but not in thecharophytes, is

Question 1 options:

	fruit.
	vascular tissue.
	the seed.
	protection of the embryo.

Question 2

Which dramatic change in the alternation-of-generations lifecycle led to the protection of all phases of the life cycle and theformation of seeds?

Question 2 options:

	transition from a dominant gametophyte generation to a dominantsporophyte generation
	transition from a dominant sporophyte generation to a dominantgametophyte generation

Question 3

Which structure(s) allow the sporophyte of vascular plants to beprotected against drying out?

Question 3 options:

	the waxy covering of leaves, called the cuticle

Question 4

Why are the bryophytes called nonvascular plants?

Question 4 options:

	because they are specialized for transporting water and organicnutrients
