About Chara braunii

Chara braunii belongs to class Charophyceae, a class of charophyte green algae, commonly known as stoneworts and brittleworts. Charophyceae have the most complex body plans among charophytic algae. The haploid thallus body plan encompasses a shoot-like axis consisting of nodes with whorls, internodes, a simplex apical meristem, and multicellular rhizoids. Their genomes have been compared to those of land plants to identify evolutionary novelties for plant terrestrialization.
