Shoots of two species of moss, Plagiomnium undulatum (Hedw.) Kop. and Plagiomnium affine (Funck) Kop., were subjected to freezing at various temperatures. After thawing, the activities of different photosynthetic reactions were determined in relation to the ages of the leaves. Analysis of the fast
Frost resistance, measured via the photosynthetic capacity after freeze-thaw treatment, and concentrations of sucrose, glucose and fructose of thalli of seven species of Bryidae and one species of Marchantiidae were determined from January to March and June to September, respectively. A distinct
