“…Bryophyte photosynthesis-that is, photosynthetic efficiency and limitationshas been scarcely studied in comparison to that of spermatophytes (Flexas et al, 2018;. However, there is evidence on how low their net CO 2 assimilation (A N ) rates are as compared to other land plants groups (Alpert & Oechel, 1987;Williams & Flanagan, 2002;Brodribb et al, 2007Brodribb et al, , 2020Waite & Sack, 2010;Hanson et al, 2014;Wang et al, 2014;Carriquí et al, 2019;Gago et al, 2019;Fan et al, 2020;Perera-Castro et al, 2020a,b,c). Recently, Carriquí et al (2019) performed a detailed study analysing which traits limited photosynthesis in the gametophytes of several bryophyte species.…”
