Synopsis Liver wort genera of Thai Land by : Phiangphak Sukkharak
Liverworts, (division Marchantiophyta), are any of more than 7,000 species of small non-vascular spore-producing plants. Liverworts are distributed worldwide, though they are most commonly found in the tropics area. In Thailand, liverworts have been collected and studied since 1899. The book “Liverwort genera of Thailand” by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Phiangphak Sukkharak, Department of Biology, Faculty of Science, Burapha University, provides a synopsis on the liverwort genera of Thailand, in which 520 species in 93 genera and 39 families have been reported, representing about 7% of the world’s liverwort species. The book consists of an introduction to liverworts, history of liverwort studies in Thailand, classification of liverworts in Thailand, key to genera of liverworts found in Thailand, generic descriptions, illustrations, discussion of the most important features for identification, data on the distribution and ecology, as well as the number of species worldwide and in Thailand.

Synopsis Bioactive Compounds in Bryophytes and Pteridophytes by : Hosakatte Niranjana Murthy
This reference work provides a comprehensive overview of bioactive compounds investigated in bryophytes and pteridophytes and explores their nutritional, biological, pharmacological and ecological effects. Bryophytes are cosmopolitan lower plants that are rich in phytochemicals including fatty acids, tocopherols, phenolics, terpenoids. Additionally, these plants contain bibenzyls, bis-benzyls, and polyketides which have been demonstrated to have antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and cytotoxic activities. Pteridophytes are another group of lower vascular plants which were reported to have useful secondary compounds such as flavonoids, steroids, phenolics, terpenoids, and these plants impart medicinal values including antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, and anti-HIV activities. This book contains comprehensive contributions compiled by expert scientists and researchers in this field.The book offers a useful resource for plant biotechnologists, plant biologists, pharmacologists, pharmacists, food technologists, nutritionists, research investigators of the healthcare industry, academia, faculty, and students of biology and biomedical sciences. It also provides a strategic framework for further research and development activities of bryophytes and pteridophytes of the world.

Synopsis Arable Bryophytes by : Ron Porley
This book has been produced to highlight the conservation importance of the mosses, liverworts, and hornworts that are found on cultivated land. These plants may be tiny and unobtrusive, but close examination reveals their true beauty. The stunning photographs will surely inspire an increased level of interest in this relatively little-known group and enable even the novice bryologist to gain a better insight into the rich diversity of our bryophyte flora. An introduction to the mosses, liverworts, and hornworts associated with cultivated land Information on the 86 bryophytes found in arable fields Illustrated profiles of the 47 bryophytes most closely associated with arable farming, highlighting those included in the UK Biodiversity Action Plan Superb close-up photographs and illustrations showing the key features Distribution maps based on the latest available data An easy-to-use approach to the identification of this challenging group

Synopsis Mosses and Other Bryophytes by : William McLagan Malcolm
"An illustrated glossary of terms that are used to describe mosses, liverworts, and hornworts. Written in informal prose, it's intended to be an everyday reference for not only bryology and botany students, but also gardeners and anybody who's interested in plants. The second edition has half again as many pages (over 330) and illustrations (nearly 1400) as the first edition did, and two-thirds of those illustrations are new. Over 530 species of bryophytes are illustrated. Also, an appendix explains how to photograph bryophytes without a camera."--NHBS Environment Bookstore.
