Streptophyta (/strɛpˈtɒfɪtə, ˈstrɛptftə/), are a clade of plants. Streptophyta is most land plants and all green algae, except for the Chlorophyta, Mesostigmatophyceae, Chlorokybophyceae and Spirotaenia.[3]

Definition

The classification of Streptophyta is different from source to source.[4] Some include more organism groups, and others include less organism groups.

Streptophyta organisms are both unicellular and multicellular. Every living green plant is a streptophyta. The Streptophyta phylum includes green algae in freshwater and all land plants. Streptophyta reproduces sexually through conjugation.[5][6][7]
