“…The genus has usually been treated as the subfamily Mielichhoferioideae within the Bryaceae, although some authors have attributed it to a separate family, the Mielichhoferiaceae ( Hill et al, 2006 ; Shaw, 2014 ). The only molecular study of phylogenetic relationships of Mielichhoferia placed the Mielichhoferiaceae within the Mniaceae according to the trnL-F and rps4 sequence data ( Guerra et al, 2011 ).…”

The mitochondrial genome of moss Mielichhoferia elongata has been sequenced and assembled with Spades genome assembler. It consists of 100,342 base pairs and has practically the same gene set and order as in other known bryophyte chondriomes. The genome contains 66 genes including three rRNAs, 24 tRNAs, and 40 conserved mitochondrial proteins genes. Unlike the majority of previously sequenced bryophyte mitogenomes, it lacks the functional nad7 gene. The phylogenetic reconstruction and scrutiny analysis of the primary structure of nad7 gene carried out in this study suggest its independent pseudogenization in different bryophyte lineages. Evaluation of the microsatellite (simple sequence repeat) content of the M. elongata mitochondrial genome indicates that it could be used as a tool in further studies as a phylogenetic marker. The strongly supported phylogenetic tree presented here, derived from 33 protein coding sequences of 40 bryophyte species, is consistent with other reconstructions based on a number of different data sets.

“…The taxonomic concepts and phylogenetic relations among genera of the families Mielichhoferiaceae, Bryaceae, and Mniaceae have given rise to much controversy in recent years [4]. Studies using nuclear, plastid, and mitochondrial sequences showed that many genera of the Mielichhoferioideae and Bryaceae families are polyphyletic [5][6][7][8].…”

“…For instance, the species of genus Pohlia was originally placed in family Bryaceae according to the characteristics of the leaf cells [9]. A phylogenetic analysis of random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers showed that Pohlia was more closely related to the genera of Mniaceae than Bryaceae [4]. However, Wang et al declared that Pohlia should not be classified in the Mniaceae and was indicated to be a closer relative of genera Mielichhofera (Mielichhoferioideae) [8,10].…”

Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) technique was used to classify 16 species from three moss families (Mielichhoferiaceae, Bryaceae, and Mniaceae). The FTIR spectra ranging from 4000 cm−1to 400 cm−1of the 16 species were obtained. To group the spectra according to their spectral similarity in a dendrogram, cluster analysis and principal component analysis (PCA) were performed. Cluster analysis combined with PCA was used to give a rough result of classification among the moss samples. However, some species belonging to the same genus exhibited very similar chemical components and similar FTIR spectra. Fourier self-deconvolution (FSD) was used to enhance the differences of the spectra. Discrete wavelet transform (DWT) was used to decompose the FTIR spectra ofMnium laevinerveandM. spinosum. Three scales were selected as the feature extracting space in the DWT domain. Results showed that FTIR spectroscopy combined with DWT was suitable for distinguishing different species of the same genus.
