Chapter 29 Plant Diversity I: How Plants Colonized Land PowerPoint® Lecture Presentations for Biology Eighth Edition Neil Campbell and Jane Reece Lectures by Chris Romero, updated by Erin Barley with contributions from Joan Sharp Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings Overview: The Greening of Earth • For more than the first 3 billion years of Earth’s history, the terrestrial surface was lifeless • Since colonizing land, plants have diversified into roughly 290,000 living species • Plants supply oxygen and are the ultimate source of most food eaten by land animals Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings Overview: Multicellularity • Advantages • Multicellular organisms can be larger and operate more efficiently • Cells are specialized to perform specific functions which benefit the whole organism • Disadvantages • Multicellular organisms need to coordinate the activities of their individual cells • They are restricted in their exploitation of habitats because of their size. Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings Fig. 29-1 How did plants change the world? Morphological and Molecular Evidence • Many characteristics of land plants also appear in a variety of algal clades, mainly algae • However, land plants share four key traits only with charophytes: – Rose-shaped complexes for cellulose synthesis – Peroxisome enzymes – Structure of flagellated sperm – Formation of a phragmoplast These rings of protewins embedded in the Plasma membrane are found only in land plants and charophyte algae Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings Concept 29.1: Land plants (Kingdom Plantae) evolved from green algae!!!!!! • Green algae called charophytes are the closest relatives of land plants • Lower plants and green algae have flagellated sperm that is similar in structure • Homologous chloroplasts – chlorophyll b • Mitosis/cytokinesis – similarities • Genetic similarities in nuclear genes and rRNA • Food reserves - starch Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings Concept 29.1: Land plants (Kingdom Plantae) evolved from green algae!!!!!! • Multicellular, photosynthetic, and immobile, all plants have cellulose walls • Because most plants cannot move around, obtaining light for photosynthesis and bringing gametes together for sexual reproduction have been dominant themes in their evolution. • Plants originated in the sea, and some forms later colonized land. The most successful land plants have vascular tissues that transport food and water through the plant and support the body in the air. • Most successful vascular plants have adaptations freeing their reproduction from dependence on water. (cuticle, stomates, reduced gametophytes that are dependent on sporophytes) Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings Fig. 29-4 Red algae Chlorophytes Plantae Embryophytes Streptophyta Charophytes Viridiplantae ANCESTRAL ALGA Living on Land compared to Water • • Advantages – More light – Higher concentration of CO2 – Nutrients in soil Disadvantages - no support for plant body - Less water available for reproduction - Segregated resources (light and air above, water and minerals below soil surface) - Extremes of temperature Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings Derived Traits of Plants • Four key traits appear in nearly all land plants but are absent in the charophytes: – Alternation of generations (with multicellular, dependent embryos) – Walled spores produced in sporangia – Multicellular gametangia – Apical meristems • Additional derived traits such as a cuticle and secondary compounds evolved in many plant species • Symbiotic associations between fungi and the first land plants may have helped plants without true roots to obtain nutrients Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings Alternation of Generations and Multicellular, Dependent Embryos • • Plants alternate between two multicellular stages, a reproductive cycle called alternation of generations • The gametophyte is haploid and produces haploid gametes by mitosis • Fusion of the gametes gives rise to the diploid sporophyte, which produces haploid spores by meiosis. These spores germinate into gametophytes. • The gametophyte produces gametes by mitosis. • The gametes fuse for form a diploid zygote which grows into the sporophyte In the evolutionary history of plants, the sporophyte generation has increased in size, number of cells and complexity while the gametophyte has decreased in size, number of cell and complexity. In higher plants, the sporophyte is the dominant form.

They remain attached to their parental gametophytes, from which they absorb sugars, amino acids, minerals, and water.
