| Among the plant branches, there were several supported groupings representing only gymnosperms or conifers. |
| The known flora consists of 41 ferns and fern allies, 3 gymnosperms, 291 monocots, and 516 dicots. |
| Some gymnosperms, such as yew, have fleshy arils that resemble fruits and some junipers have berry-like, fleshy cones. |
| Copia group sequences have been found in diverse species, including single-cell algae, bryophytes, gymnosperms, and angiosperms. |
| Archegonia occur in most gymnosperms except Gnetum and Welwitschia, but they are lacking in all angiosperms. |
| These data suggest that the enzyme is well conserved in plants and could play similar physiological roles in angiosperms and gymnosperms. |
