Chapter 38
 Plant
Reproduction
and
Development
Sexual Reproduction



Alternation of generations:
haploid (n) and diploid
(2n) generations take turns
producing each other
Sporophyte (2n):
produces haploid spores
by meiosis; these spores
divide by mitosis giving
rise to male and female
haploid plants called….
Gametophytes (n):
develop and produce
gametes
Floral variations







Floral organs: sepals, petals,
stamens (male ), carpels (female)
•complete: all 4 floral organs
•incomplete: lacking 1 or more
floral organs
•perfect: both stamens and carpels
on 1 flower
•imperfect: lacking either a stamen
or carpel
•monoecious: staminate and
carpellate flowers on 1 plant)
•dioecious: staminate and
carpellate flowers on separate
plants
Gametophyte development

Male gametophyte:
microsporocyte (in pollen sacs of
anther) divides by meiosis into 41N microspores; mitosis produces a
generative cell (sperm) and a tube
cell (pollen tube)= a pollen grain

Female gametophyte:
megasporocyte (in ovule) divides
by meiosis to 4 cells, only 1
survives to a 1-N megaspore; 3
mitotic divisions forms the embryo
sac; includes: 1 egg cell (female
gamete) and 2 polar nuclei
(synergids)
Double fertilization





Pollination (pollen grain lands
on a receptive stigma)
Tube cell (pollen tube produced
down the style)
Generative cell (2 sperm by
mitosis)
Enters ovary through micropyle
1 sperm fertilizes egg to form
zygote; other sperm combines
with 2 polar nuclei to form 3n
endosperm (food-storing tissue)

The seed









From fertilized ovule…..
The mature seed:
•seed coat (protection)
•cotyledons (seed leaves)
•hypocotyl (lower
embryonic axis)
•radicle (embryonic root)
•epicotyl (upper
embryonic axis)
•plummule (shoot tip)
•coleoptile (sheath for
embryonic shoot)

The fruit







From ovary….
Fruit protects seeds and aids in their dispersal
Pericarp (thickened wall of fruit from ovary wall)
Fruit types:
•simple (1 ovary/1 flower)~ cherry, soybean
•aggregate (1 flower with many carpels/ovaries)~ blackberry
•multiple (inflorescence; group of flowers/ovaries) ~ pineapple

Seed germination




Seed dormancy (low metabolic rate and growth
suspension)
Imbibition (uptake of water)
Radicle 1st, then shoot tip (hypocotyl); stimulated by light
Germination
