Gene ID	Name	Evidence / Role	Function (this paper)
Mp6g09180	MpRGF	experimental subject	The single M. polymorpha RGF-GLV-CLEL-like peptide gene; constitutively expressed in transgenic A. thaliana (causing wavy growth, shorter roots, fewer lateral roots) and in M. polymorpha under the MpEF1 promoter (yielding small dwarfed plants). Shows MpRGF can signal through A. thaliana RGF receptors, demonstrating conserved RGF signaling between bryophytes and vascular plants.
Mp3g23400	MpEF1	experimental tool	Used as a constitutive promoter to drive MpRGF overexpression in transgenic M. polymorpha.
