In bryophytes, a gemma is a small, asexual reproductive structure that typically develops in specialized cups on the thallus of liverworts. These structures can be detached and dispersed by rain, eventually growing into new plants. Gemmae allow for a means of vegetative reproduction, enabling bryophytes to spread and colonize new areas efficiently. This method complements their sexual reproduction, enhancing their adaptability in various environments.
