The correct option is C Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
Dryopteris is unique pteridophyte. Assertion is correct but the reason for the assertion is incorrect. Dryopteris commonly called as wood fern, male fern or buckler fern, is a genus of about 250 species of ferns with distribution in the temperate Northern Hemisphere, with the highest species diversity in eastern Asia. Many of the species have stout, slowly creeping rootstocks that form a crown, with a vase-like ring of fronds. The sori are round, with a peltate indusium. The stipes have prominent scales. Hybridisation is a well-known phenomenon within this group, with many species formed by this method.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
