Leafy species can be distinguished from the apparently similar mosses on the basis of a number of features, including their single-celled rhizoids.
32.
What are thought to be the underground stems of " Ventarura " had single-celled hairs, presumably rhizoids, on all sides.
33.
It grows from a short cylindrical stipe attached to the rocks by a holdfast of branching root-like rhizoids and grows to about 20 cm long.
34.
Cyanobacteria have filamentous growth forms that bind soil particles together, and hyphae of fungi and rhizines / rhizoids of lichens and mosses also have similar effects.
35.
The rhyniophytes bore fine rhizoids, and the trimerophytes and herbaceous lycopods of the chert bore root-like structure penetrating a few centimetres into the soil.
36.
Instead, " Rickenella " produces a small appressorium or no appressoria and penetrates the rhizoids of its moss hosts, growing within the cells.
37.
The Rhynie chert bears many examples of male and female gametophytes, which are loosely similar in their construction to the sporophyte phase, down to bearing rhizoids.
38.
High levels of proanthocyanidins were found in both the leaves, as well as the rhizoids, yet only the rhizoids accumulate extremely high levels of heavy metals.
39.
High levels of proanthocyanidins were found in both the leaves, as well as the rhizoids, yet only the rhizoids accumulate extremely high levels of heavy metals.
40.
Allomyces macrogynus also shows chemotropism in the growing hyphal organisms by which the rhizoids can grow towards amino acid sources and the hyphae to a better oxygen supply.
