Oldest tree 4600 years old Pacific Yew Located in Old Growth Forest of the North West Used for taxol cure for breast cancer Won’t return in regrowth Spotted Owls Monoecious trees Phylum Cycadophyta Mainly tropical, small shrubs, kind of palm-tree like (compound leaves) Dioecious sporophyte – two houses for the separate sexes Pollination occurs by insects Phylum Ginkgophyta Ginkgo biloba Common name: maidenhair tree Only species in phylum Extract good for memory Dioecious Dichotomous= two way branching of leaves Deciduous= loses leaves Dwarf branches Monotypic Fleshy seed coat on female trees (smells) Pollution resistant Under cultivation only Leaf extract Phylum Gnetophyta Common name: mormon’s tea Drugs are made from extract Dry adaptive plant in deserts Protected by poisonous chemicals Animals get sick if they eat them Gnetum Seed with bright color, fleshy coat Welwitschia In driest places on earth Ever growing leaves o 2 leaves Live with no rain Draping leaves over dunes and absorbs moisture from dew Doesn’t absorb water from roots o Water moves backwards from leaves to meristem (center) Picture: Angio & Gymno = seed producing plants Angiosperms -- (Anigio: container| Sperm: seed) o Seed producing plants o Produces fruit Fruit used for seed dispersal o 90% of all plant species o Most successful and dominant group o 1 phylum= Phylum Anthophyta Antho=flower Should be Phylum Magnoliophyta Genus Magnolia o Plesiomorphic o Angiosperms have fruit and flowers Flowers used for reproduction (pollination) o Characteristics of Angiosperms: Reduction in gametophyte generation 2 celled pollen 7 celled megagametophyte o No archegonium Double fertilization o Flower Determinate sporophyll- bearing shoot Leaf arrangements= alternate, opposite, whorl 4 whorls (determinate because 4 and no more) 2 sterile (don’t directly produce spores) 2 fertile- male and female: involved in reproduction Flower picture: Petals+ sepals= sterile parts All petals= corolla All sepals= calyx Stem = peduncle Receptacle = squashed together, swollen part with four nodes Corolla + calyx= sterile, responsible for attraction Corolla + calyx= perianth (sterile) Stamens= modified leaves (sporophylls) Pollen produced in stamens Stamen have anthers with a tiny hole to get pollen out Androecium= male house o Made up of the anther and the filament Male life cycle takes place in anther = microsperangia Stigma + style + ovary= carpels The carpel is the gynoecium If carpels are fused= pistil gynoecium Fusion – in or between whorls Connation= fusion of like parts / fused petals within a whorl Adnation= fusion of unlike parts Presence/Absence of parts: complete= all four whorls are present incomplete= missing one or more whorl imperfect= fertile whorls absent o carpellate- carpels present, stamens absent o staminate- stamens present, carpels absent o monoecious or dioecious perfect= fertile whorls present o if it is perfect it is monoecious Monoecious = Both sexes at same time Ovary position Hypogynous o Superior (above) ovary o All other flower parts are below ovary Epigynous o Inferior ovary o All other flower parts are above the ovary Perigynous o With hypanthium Symmetry Actinomorphic o Radial symmetry Zygomorphic o Bilateral symmetry Inflorescences: Pollination syndromes o Example entomophily = Insect loving Seed dispersal syndromes o Example hydrochory= water seed dispersal Ex: coconut Morning glory- connation of corolla Yellow fringed orchid-raceme Pedestal and peduncle zygomorphic Butterfly weed Compound umble Pollination by butterflies Bat pollination syndrome Odor= rotten fruit Color=white Structure= deep nectar Nocturnal anthesis (opens up at night) Connation of corola Hummingbird pollination syndrome Odor= none Color= yellow Structure= long, tube like Coral plant Example: coral bean Carion Fly pollination syndrome Odor= dead rotten meat Structure= looks like dead meat, hairy Color=deep red No benefit for flies (antagonistic relationships) Largest flower on earth is a Carion Fly pollination flower Beetle pollination syndrome Color=plain white Odor= musky or fruity Structure= open, dish shaped Bee pollination syndrome Color=bright spots, “arrows”, etc o Nectar guide Examples: violets, passion flower, blueberry flower, blue-eyed marry Bees are hairy and the pollen sticks to their hairs o Fruit Anthers in bee pollination flowers only have one tiny hole and bees must vibrate at the right frequency to get the nectar/pollen out Insects see in UV, UV is invisible to humans Pollen= male gametophyte – 2 cells big Moth pollination syndrome Odor= fruity Color=white Structure= long tube Nocturnal anthesis Spike Ethrodynamic: sticky, like playdo Butterfly pollination syndrome disc like flat surface for landing example: Thistle o disc flowers only, no ray flowers Wind pollination syndrome Grass flowers have no calyx, no nectar, no odor, no corolla, no perianth Abundant pollen Anemophily= wind pollination No wind, oder or color Lacking: purine Yuca Flower Moths live in them o feed on nectar o gather pollen=stamen to stigma o ethnodynamic= moths can ball up pollen even though its sticky and carry it to another flower’s stigma Orchids Yellow lady slipper orchid “tricky” flowers o Has an opening that is slippery and attracts insects o Insects get stuck for awhile and eventually escape through a “back door” o Self pollinates= insect comes in one way, passing by the stigma and dropping off pollen from another flower, and then goes out another way Ensures Cross pollination Prevents self pollination Seed container and dispersal Fruit forms from ovary wall Pericarp=ovary wall=outside of fruit Cockleburrs Epizoochory- seed dispersal via transportation on outside of animals Maple Samara= fruit in which pericarp bears wings and allows for wind dispersal Anemochory= wind seed dispersal Coconut Widest dispersed fruit in the world o Because coconuts can float, they float al around the world Hydrochory Has largest seed of all fruit Hard endocarp= pit 3 layers of pericarp o Fibrous mesocarp o Hard endocarp o Endosperm Drupe= type of fruit that has a “pit” o Peach Strawberry Achene=A small, dry, indehiscent one-seeded fruit with a thin wall Accessory fruit= fruit in which the fleshy parts are derived largely or entirely from tissues other than the ovary o Receptacle= swollen stem tissue that forms fruit (accessory tissue) Aggregate fruit= many one-seeded achenes produced by a single flower No pistal Carpels unfused Pineapple Multiple fruit= opposite of aggregate fruit o More than one flower that fuses to form a fruit Inflorescence develops into single fruit Berries Fleshy all the way through Grapes, tomatoes, blueberries Addapted to survive being eaten All or most of the pericarp is soft/fleshy Pepo= a berry with a hard thick rind o Example: watermelon & tomato Hesperidium= berry with a leathery rind o o Example: lemons or limes Peaches Use animals for seed dispersal Drupe Stony endocarp protects seed 3 layers of pericarp (see coconut) Apple Pome= ovary surrounded by fleshy hypanthium o Fruits with a core Seed within ovary (core)= pericarp Accessory fruit Corn Dry fruit Caryopsis= dry fruit in which pericarp layers are tightly together around seed (indehiscent) Dry dehiscent fruits: Legume- splits on two sides o peanut Capsule- okra Follicle- splits on one side o Milk leaf Dry indehiscent (doesn’t split) fruits: Samara Nut (single seed not attached) o Acorn Achene (single seed attached on one end) o Sunflower seed Sweet Gum and Magnolia fruit Developed from single flowerhad unfused carpels Aggregate of follicles Follicles= dry dehiscent that splits on one side Within an Anther of an Angiosperm: Microspore and microgametophytes 4 Cells of Pollen grain Tube cell and generative cell – essential to pollinate Pollen sac picture: o Within an ovary of an Angiosperm: Picture o o o o Parts of a seed: Embryo originates from zygote Endosperm originates from fertilized central cell Seed coat originates from integuments Sperm + egg= zygote Sperm +central cell= triploid (3n) Seed comes from this o Seed coat (2n) o Endosperm (3n) o Embryo (2n) Ripening Seed/fruit both go through ripening process Seed dispersal Fruit ______chory After ripening When dormancy is accomplished Scarification Cold period Fire adaptation Time Embryogenesis Picture: Types of seeds Albuminous o Endosperm surrounds embryo Exalbuminous o Endosperm absorbed by cotyledons Germination Types o Epigeous (epigeal) seed germination Cotyledons above ground o Hypogenous (hypogeal) germination Cotyledons remain below ground Primary Growth Primary meristems o Shoot apical meristem Including axillary buds o Root apical meristems Initial and derivative cells Protoderm, ground tissue meristem, procambium Plant Growth Primary= primary meristems 3 tissue systems o Ground Tissue System Parenchyma—simple Parenchyma cells o Also in complex tissues o Most common type of cells in plant tissue o Alive at maturity o Capable of mitosis o Functions: Healing and regrowth Storage Photosynthesis Collenchyma tissue—simple Collenchyma cells o Also

Sclereids Short, branched Makes up hard plant parts (ex: nut shells) Fibers Long, narrow Example: Cotton o Dead at maturity o Secondary cell wall on top of primary cell wall Lignified Dermal Tissue System Epidermis tissue—complex Epidermal cells – any tissue that covers outer surface o Thin, flat o Light passes through o Not green o Not capable of photosynthesis o Cuticle is produced for protection waterproof non-living layer on outer surface of epidermal cells contains waxes, oils, etc. for water proofing to prevent water loss Guard cells o Found in pairs o Form stoma Plural stomata Openings/breathing holes o Control openings to prevent water loss – desiccation adaptation o Photosynthetic Produces oxygen (cellular respiration uses that oxygen) Trichomes o Plant hairs o Antiherbivory Some with toxins When hairs are broken, some will let off toxins that cause welps, etc so animals will not eat them o Insulation Prevents water loss Carnivory Salt adaptation o o o Vascular Tissue System Xylem—complex tissue (not all cells are same) Water transport Parenchyma cells, collenchyma cells, and sclerenchyma cells are found within Xylem Conducting cells – how water travels o Dead and hollow o Water channels o Undergoes Autolysis ( becomes hollow by lysosomes) o 2 types: Tracheids = pits: places for water passages Pit pairs Gap in secondary cell wall Pit membrane= 2 layers of primary cell wall; where water passes through Vessel members = pits Perforations= absolute openings Holes in primary and secondary cell wall Phloem—complex Transport of photosynthate Flow: leaves stem roots materials that are stored (photosynthate) Parenchyma cells, collenchyma cells, and sclerenchyma cells are found in phloem Conducting cells o Alive at maturity, no mitosis o dependent o Sieve cells o Sieve tube members o Sieve areas= cluster of pores through which photosynthesis is transferred Primary and secondary Xylem and Phloem Random Facts Long leaf pine forests=woodpecker home o Long leaf pines must have red heart disease so the woodpeckers can make a hole on the tree to live in easily Yellow belly sapsucker makes holes in the phloem to drink the sugars Dark ring= meristem Outward= larger rings under small rings Tissues slack off in bark; not useful for counting age
