Dioicy is a sexual system where archegonia and antheridia are produced on separate gametophytes.[1] It is one of the two main sexual systems in bryophytes. One biologist [who?] stated there is a good reason for the distinction between dioecy and dioicy. Others have stated that the term dioecy is meaningless for bryophytes.[2]: 62  Nonetheless dioecy and dioicy are comparable in many respects.[3]

Dioicy promotes outcrossing.[4] Dioicy is also heavily connected to the lack of sporophyte production.[5]

Sexual dimorphism is commonly found in dioicous species.[2]: 71  However, according to Bernard Goffinet sexual dimorphism is rare in dioicious moss species.[6]

Occurrence

68% of liverwort species,[1] 57% to 60%[7] of moss species, and 40% of hornwort species are dioicous.[1] Dioicy is also prevalent in brown algae.[8][clarification needed]

In all cases sex determination is always genetic.[9]

Evolution of dioicy

The ancestral sexual system in bryophytes is unknown but it has been suggested monoicy and dioicy evolved several times.[10] It has also been suggested that dioicy is a plesiomorphic character for bryophytes.[2]: 71 

Hornworts have gone through twice as many transitions from dioicy to monoicy than monoicy to dioicy.[1] Sexual specialization has been used as an explanation for the recurring evolution of dioicy in mosses.[2]: 71 

In order for dioicy to evolve from monoicy it needs two mutations, a male sterility mutation and a female sterility mutation.[10]
