RE: [BRYONET] Sphagna-liverworts

You might find these references useful.

Two interesting features of Gymnocolea are that it lacks a fungus and does not produce flagelliform axes.

Dear colleagues,

 

I am looking for literature that have studied the interactions between

Sphagna and hepatics particularly with Cladopodiella or Gymnocolea in

wet carpets or at pool margin.

 

I am aware of this paper: Paasio, I., 1934. Uber die Lebermoore der

Hochmoore Finnlands. Annales botanici societatis zoologicae-botanicae

Fennicae Vanamo 5, 20-30.

I would greatly appreciate any suggestion regarding this topic.

 

Merry Christmas to all,
