Learn about Marchantia, a genus of liverworts with about 65 species, terrestrial and cosmopolitan in distribution. Find out its external and internal features, sexual and asexual reproduction, and alternation of generation with diagrams. In this article we will discuss about the structure of Marchantia with the help of diagrams. External Structure of Marchantia: The gametophyte of Marchantia is a dichotomously branched, prostrate, dorsiventral thallus (Fig. 6.8). The dorsal surface of the thallus shows many regular rhomboidal or polygonal areas (Fig. 6.9A). Each area has a pore at the cen­ter. A distinct median groove (midrib) is present on the upper (dorsal) surface in each branch of the thallus with a corresponding ridge ...
