14 Aug 2023: Teaching resources for courses on plant development and biotechnology. These pages contain information for a variety of different courses on plant development and biotechnology that are provided by Jim Haseloff at the University of Cambridge. They

14 Aug 2023: Marchantia polymorpha. The liverworts (or Marchantiophyta) are descendants of the earliest terrestrial plants. The group is characterised by morphological simplicity, and this seems to be matched by simple underlying genome structures. Liverworts

14 Aug 2023: Resources to support work with plant systems. This section of the website contains links to various local resources that we have developed. Hopefully some may be directly useful, others for survey or to trigger plant-inspired ideas. OpenPlant is a

14 Aug 2023: Outreach activities. We play a major role in promoting accessible technologies for interdisciplinary activities, bringing biologists together with engineers, physical scientists and social scientists. These activities range from student-led

14 Aug 2023: Cross-section of the Marchantia polymorpha thallus. Photosynthetic cells are enclosed within chambers below the upper epidermal surface of the thallus. Specialised cells form an air pore to facilitate gas exchange and limit water loss. The lower

14 Aug 2023: Liverwort hunting at the XIIIth Australian Bryophyte Workshop—Flinders Ranges and Adelaide, South Australia. The workshop was held near Quorn in the Flinders Ranges, in August 2016 and was followed by identification sessions and expert workshops

14 Aug 2023: Growth in soil. Marchantia polymorpha is a weed, and the plants are very easy to grow. We have experimented with a number of media and growth conditions. For very vigorous growth, we have used jiffy-7 pots, which are supplied as compressed dried peat

14 Aug 2023: Marchantia polymorpha has 9 chromosomes and a genome size of around 290MB. The dominant form is the haploid gametophyte. The plant is dioecious, with sex determined by segregating X and Y chromosomes. The Y chromosome has been sequenced recently
