non-vascular plant

The term non-vascular plant is no longer used in scientific nomenclature.

Non-vascular plants do not have a wide variety of specialized tissue types.

Bryophyta is the traditional term for this division of non-vascular plants.

There is little research to date on climate change's effects on non-vascular plants.

Moss is a small, soft, non-vascular plant that does not have flowers or seeds.

In the past, the term non-vascular plant included all the algae, but also the fungi as well.

Before the evolution of vascular plants, non-vascular plants likely played a more significant role.

The non-vascular plants are, in any event, related.

This article is about the non-vascular plants.

This figure does not include algae, mosses, and lichens, which are non-vascular plants.

Hornworts are a group of bryophytes, or non-vascular plants.

However, current findings suggest that most lower elevation non-vascular plant communities will increase in biodiversity due to invasion from southern species moving north.

Botanically, mosses are non-vascular plants in the land plant division Bryophyta.

The zoid is most common among the non-vascular plants and the "lower" vascular plants.

Edwards demoted the species to the status of a non-vascular plant and renamed it Aglaophyton major.

Non-vascular plants are plants without a vascular system (xylem and phloem).

Non-vascular plants include two distantly related groups:

While mosses are considered non-vascular plants, Polytrichum commune shows clear differentiation of water conducting tissue.

Current research projects include studies of local vascular and non-vascular plants, especially bryophytes; ecology; and conservation biology.

Although non-vascular plants lack these particular tissues, many possess simpler tissues that are specialized for internal transport of water.

The midland painted turtle eats mostly aquatic insects and both vascular and non-vascular plants.

In contrast to animals, fungi and non-vascular plants, the cells of flowering plants lack dynein motors.

Mosses are Bryophytes, which are non-vascular plants.

By contrast, the principal generation phase in non-vascular plants is the gametophyte, which is haploid with one set of chromosomes per cell.

Like non-vascular plants, higher elevation vascular plants are expected to experience a reduction in habitat as a result of the upwardly invading tree line.
