Abstract
⺠The closest living relatives of land plants are a grade of Streptophyte algae. ⺠Elements of the land plant genetic tool kit evolved within the Streptophyte grade. ⺠Bryophytes also form a grade, making reconstruction of ancestral states difficult. ⺠Genetic data may be phylogenetically informative in cases where morphology is highly derived.
