In this chapter, we review the main organogenesis features and associated regulation processes of the moss
Physcomitrella patens (P. patens)
, the model plant for the Bryophytes. We highlight how the study of this descendant of the earliest plant species that colonized earth, brings useful keys to understand the mechanisms that determine and control both vascular and non vascular plants organogenesis. Despite its simple morphogenesis pattern,
P. patens
still requires the fine tuning of organogenesis regulators, including hormone signalling, common to the whole plant kingdom, and which study is facilitated by a high number of molecular tools, among which the powerful possibility of gene targeting/replacement. The recent discovery of moss cells reprogramming capacity completes the picture of an excellent model for studying plant organogenesis.
