Abstract
Lycopods represent a significant diversification point on the land plant phylogenetic tree, being the earliest divergent extant tracheophyte lineage (Kenrick, 1994) and marking the transition from non-vascular to vascular plants. Several lycophytes (Huperzia, Lycopodium, Lycopodiella and Phylloglossum; Supplementary Fig. 1a) possess an "alternation of generations" lifecycle (Kenrick, 1994) which features fully independent gametophyte (haploid) and dominant sporophyte (diploid) generations (Haufler et al, 2016; Supplementary Fig. 1b).
