Understanding evolution from bryophytes

All extant life forms on Earth have evolved from a single common ancestor. Although much remains unknown about the fundamental principles of evolution, it is anticipated that as our understanding deepens, we will be better equipped to apply these principles      for the conservation of biological diversity and the advancement of future societies. To comprehend evolutionary processes, I conduct comparative research on dioicous and monoicous bryophytes. The dioicous bryophyte possesses a sex chromosome, which      genetically determines its sex, while the monoicous bryophyte does not have a sex chromosome and forms male and female reproductive organs on the same individual depending on the season. By investigating molecular mechanisms, from chromosomal      rearrangement to biological phenomena acquired in evolution, I aim to contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the fundamental principles governing evolutionary biology.
