Selaginella canaliculata Selaginella selaginoides Selaginella willdenowii is known for its iridescent colours. There are about 750 known species of Selaginella. [21] They show a wide range of characters; the genus is overdue for a revision which might include subdivision into several genera. [citation needed] Species of spikemoss include:
In a vascular plant, the stele is the central part of the root or stem [1] containing the tissues derived from the procambium. These include vascular tissue, in some cases ground tissue and a pericycle, which, if present, defines the outermost boundary of the stele.
Selaginella moellendorffii is a lycophyte that is an important model organism, especially in comparative genomics. S. moellendorffii is a member of an ancient vascular plant lineage that first appeared in the fossil record some 400 million years ago. They would later form a dominant part of the world's flora during the Carboniferous period.
In plant anatomy and evolution a microphyll (or lycophyll) is a type of plant leaf with one single, unbranched leaf vein. [1] Plants with microphyll leaves occur early in the fossil record, and few such plants exist today.
Selaginella willdenowii is a species of vascular plant in the Selaginellaceae family. [1] It is a spikemoss known by the common names Willdenow's spikemoss [2] [3] and peacock fern [4] due to its iridescent blue leaves. [5] [6] Like other Selaginallales, it is fern ally and not a true fern.
Selaginella stellata, also recognized by its common name, starry spikemoss [1] or starry spike-moss, is a species of spikemoss of the family Selaginellaceae. It is a type of lycopod that grows naturally in Mexico and Central American countries like Guatemala and Belize [ 2 ] and can also be found in the state of Hawaii .
Selaginella lepidophylla is a small, fern-like plant with delicate, green stems and leaves. The plant forms a low, spreading mat, and it reproduces by spores. Selaginella lepidophylla grows in dry, sandy soils in full sun. The striking feature of Selaginella lepidophylla is its adaptation to conditions of prolonged drought in its natural ...
Selaginella selaginoides is a non-flowering plant of the spikemoss genus Selaginella with a wide distribution around the Northern Hemisphere. It resembles a moss in appearance but is a vascular plant belonging to the division Lycopodiophyta .
