Bryophyte Biology: Morphology, anatomy, and classification of the Bryophyta
- W. Buck, A. J. Shaw
- Biology
- 1 October 2008
Introduction 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… Expand

Newly resolved relationships in an early land plant lineage: Bryophyta class Sphagnopsida (peat mosses).
UNLABELLED
PREMISE OF THE STUDY
The Sphagnopsida, an early-diverging lineage of mosses (phylum Bryophyta), are morphologically and ecologically unique and have profound impacts on global climate.… Expand
Novel Relationships in Pleurocarpous Mosses as Revealed by cpDNA Sequences
- W. Buck, B. Goffinet, A. Jonathan Shaw
- Biology
- 1 December 2000
Abstract As a result of a project using two chloroplast loci, the trnL-trnF region and the rps4 gene, to test the monophyly of pleurocarpous mosses as a group and the traditional three orders… Expand
Introduction to Bryology
- W. Buck
- Biology
- 1986
Introduction To Bryology Leading bryologist W. B. Schofield gives a broad, international view of bryology that goes beyond a basic understanding of structure to present the bryophytes as a vital… Expand

- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular phylogenetics and evolution
- 1 August 2000
The ordinal classification of pleurocarpous mosses rests on characters such as branching mode and architecture of the peristome teeth that line the mouth of the capsule. The Leucodontales comprise… Expand
PHYLOGENETIC EVIDENCE OF A RAPID RADIATION OF PLEUROCARPOUS MOSSES (BRYOPHYTA)

- Evolution; international journal of organic…
- 1 October 2003
Abstract Pleurocarpous mosses, characterized by lateral female gametangia and highly branched, interwoven stems, comprise three orders and some 5000 species, or almost half of all moss diversity.… Expand
Ordinal Phylogeny within the Hypnobryalean Pleurocarpous Mosses Inferred from Cladistic Analyses of Three Chloroplast DNA Sequence Data Sets: trnL-F, rps4, and rbcL
- E. De Luna, W. Buck, +5 authors A. Shaw
- Biology
- 2000
Abstract Classification of families of hypnobryalean mosses into the Hypnales, Leucodontales, and Hookeriales has been taxonomically difficult. Several researchers have sequenced different genes for… Expand
