Spatiotemporal Profiling of the Marchantia Sporophyte Reveals Ancestral Meristem Module and Dynamic Epigenetic Reprogramming during Early Embryogenesis
This work generated a spatiotemporally resolved transcriptomic atlas of Marchantia sporophyte development using laser-assisted microdissection coupled with RNA sequencing and uncovered distinct gene expression programs associated with early embryogenesis, sporogenous specification, and late tissue differentiation.
