Everything about Marchantiales totally explained
Marchantiales is an
order of thallose
liverworts that includes species like
Lunularia cruciata, a common and often troublesome weed in moist, temperate gardens and greenhouses.
As in other
bryophytes, the
gametophyte generation is dominant, with the
sporophyte existing as a short-lived part of the
life cycle, dependent upon the gametophyte.
The
genus Marchantia is often used to typify the order, although there are also many species of
Asterella and species of the genus
Riccia are more numerous.
The majority of genera are characterized by the presence of (a) special stalked vertical branches called archegoniophores or carocephala, and (b) sterile cells celled
elaters inside the sporangium.
