    Bryum species generally have shorter laminal cells with short, thick, and rounded stems. [3] All Bryum species exhibit narrowed cells at the margins. Bryum species can be identified through patterns of asexual reproduction , coloration features of the stem and leaf base, and the strength of the leaf border.

    Chloroplasts (green discs) and accumulated starch granules in cells of Bryum capillare. Botanically, mosses are non-vascular plants in the land plant division Bryophyta. They are usually small (a few centimeters tall) herbaceous (non-woody) plants that absorb water and nutrients mainly through their leaves and harvest carbon dioxide and sunlight to create food by photosynthesis.

    The targeted deletion or alteration of moss genes relies on the integration of a short DNA strand at a defined position in the genome of the host cell. Both ends of this DNA strand are engineered to be identical to this specific gene locus. The DNA construct is then incubated with moss protoplasts in the presence of polyethylene glycol.

    It was believed to have the lowest known chromosome count (n=4) per cell of any land plant, [9] but some plants of the small Australian daisy Brachyscome dichromosomatica are now known to have a count of n=2. [10] From a distance, Takakia looks like a typical layer of moss or green algae on the rock where it grows.
