[Environmental physiological characteristics of some mosses in Shanghai: a preliminary study]

The preliminary study on the environmental physiological characteristics of bryophytes collected from Shanghai area, including their responses to drought, temperature, humidity, light and growth substrate, as well as their tissue culture technology showed that different species of bryophytes under same conditions and the same species under different conditions had different drought resistance. Adding organic matter to sand soil and short-illumination benefited the growth of bryophytes. Treating with proper growth hormones could accelerate the reproduction and growth of bryophyte. Hogland medium was suitable for the tissue culture of bryophytes.
