funaria hygrometrica/oxidase

The effects of cyanide and 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea (DCMU) on photosynthesis and respiration of intact chlorophyllic moss (Funaria hygrometrica) spore was investigated. Thirty micromolar cyanide strongly inhibited dark respiration, was without effect on photosynthesis at high light

In the growing chloronema cell suspension cultures of the moss Funaria hygrometrica Hedw., activities of several enzymes have been found to be cell-density-dependent. Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (cNPDE), nitrate reductase (NR), and protein kinase showed highest activity at a low cell density

Atradidymella muscivora (Pleosporales) is a bryophyte pathogen that infects the mosses Aulacomnium palustre, Hylocomium splendens, and Polytrichum juniperinum. Light and scanning electron microscopy and extracellular enzyme production were used to characterize the interactions between this fungus
