Delighted to share our New Phytologist Tansley insight: “How to build a shoot: insights from Physcomitrium patens”.
A big shoutout to my PhD student Simon Howe for his excellent work on this paper, and for producing some mosstastic figures (moss-terpieces!). Read it here: doi.org/10.1111/nph.... 🌱 😊
