Streptophyta (/strɛpˈtɒfɪtə, ˈstrɛptftə/), informally the streptophytes (/ˈstrɛptəfts/, from the Greek strepto 'twisted', for the morphology of the sperm of some members), is a clade of plants. The composition of the clade varies considerably between authors, but the definition employed here includes land plants and all green algae except the Chlorophyta and the more basal Prasinodermophyta.[4]

Classifications

[edit | edit source]

The composition of Streptophyta and similar groups (Streptophytina, Charophyta) varies in each classification.[5][citation needed] Some authors include only the Charales and Embryophyta (e.g., Streptophyta,[1][6] Streptophytina[3]); others include more groups (e.g., Charophyta,[3][6] Streptophyta,[7][8] Streptobionta[9]); some authors use this broader definition, but exclude the Embryophyta (e.g., Charophyta,[10][8] Charophyceae[citation needed], Streptophycophytes[citation needed]).

The clade Streptophyta includes both unicellular and multicellular organisms. Streptophyta contains the freshwater charophyte green algae and all land plants that reproduce sexually by conjugation. Mesostigma viride, a unicellular green flagellate alga may be a basal Streptophyte.[11][12]

These earlier classifications have not taken into account that the Coleochaetophyceae and the Zygnemophyceae appear to have emerged in the Charophyceae + Embryophyta clade, resulting in the synonymy of the Phragmoplastophyta and Streptophytina/Streptophyta sensu stricto (a.k.a. Adl 2012[6]) nomenclature.[13]

Streptofilum, described in 2018,[17] appears to bring in a new branching.[18]
