| Research Abstract |
In order to investigate the origin and evolution of the diploid multicellular sporophytes of land plants, in this study, we performed RNA-seq analysis from different tissues of Chara braunii, which has haploid multicellular gametophyte generation with complex differentiation of cell types and organs. Within contigs obtained in this study, we found many homologues of genes involved in plant development. The phylogenetic, expression and functional analyses in homologues obtained in this study may shed light on the key to understanding the origin and evolution of multicellular sporophytes.
