k Moss sporangium, fluorescence micrograph Fluorescence micrograph of moss Bryum sp. sporangium. The sporangium is the final stage of moss sporophyte development. Spores are produced as a result of meiotic divisions of archesporial tissue inside the moss capsule. Some moss capsules are equipped with a single or double ring of toothshaped cells peristome thar are sensitive to humidity. Peristome cells help in the opening of the sporangium for spore release. Every single haploid spore can germinate into a protonema and start moss gametophyte generation. Observed in ultraviolet UV light.

Moss sporangium, fluorescence micrograph

Fluorescence micrograph of moss (Bryum sp.) sporangium. The sporangium is the final stage of moss sporophyte development. Spores are produced as a result of meiotic divisions of archesporial tissue inside the moss capsule. Some moss capsules are equipped with a single or double ring of tooth-shaped cells (peristome) thar are sensitive to humidity. Peristome cells help in the opening of the sporangium for spore release. Every single haploid spore can germinate into a protonema and start moss gametophyte generation. Observed in ultraviolet (UV) light.
