Gene ID	Name	Evidence / Role	Function (this paper)
Mp3g19940	MpDYRKP missing	experimental subject	Main subject; the single plant-specific DYRKP ortholog in M. polymorpha studied by CRISPR/Cas9 loss-of-function mutants and complementation. Mpdyrkp mutants show shrunken, less-flattened thalli with waved margins, disordered epidermis, lower cell circularity, and defective antheridiophores. Citrine fusion localizes the kinase as diffuse cytosolic puncta around apical notches; cell proliferation remains largely normal.
Mp8g00080	MpAN	experimental comparator	Compared as a cross-species/functional partner: Mpan mutants show twisted thalli and suppressed growth, with cortical microtubule defects partially overlapping but opposite in cell-circularity effect to Mpdyrkp.
—	MpDYRK2 missing	sequence background	Phylogenetic reference defining a separate DYRK subgroup, used for kinase-domain comparison illustrating DYRK family diversity.
—	MpTAR1 missing	sequence background	Phylogenetic reference; the M. polymorpha YAK1 homolog placed in the DYRK2 subgroup, distinct from DYRKP.
