Gnetophytes
• 3 genera: Welwitschia, Ephedra, Gnetum
• Mostly dioecious
• Have more Similarities to angiosperms:
– Have vessel elements,
– Lack archegonia (except Ephedra)
– Two sperm nuclei in pollen. Fertilizes two eggs in
some groups. Analogous to double fertilization n
angiosperms
• Morphologically diverse group, grouped by
genetic comparisons
• Common ancestral pool long gone, a few remote
descendents remaining.

Leaves look like palms, ferns
Makes cones
Dioecious, herterosporous
Pollen tube produces sperm inside !!
Pollen (Staminate) Cone:
• Produced yearly
• Short lived- die after
releasing pollen
• Different species release pollen
at different times to avoid hybridization
• The male cone has the microsporangia on scale-like
sporophylls .
– (n) microspores from by meiosis
– They develop into pollen grains
– Produces millions of pollen grains per branch
• Carried by wind- random mating
Pollen
• are the male gametophytes
– just 4 cells !
– generative cell forms the pollen tube
– Pine pollen have wing cells to keep them afloat
in air
• are covered with a tough sporopollenin.
• are carried away by wind or animals until
pollination occurs.
• pollen grain will elongate a tube into the
ovule and deliver sperm (nuclei) into the
female gametophyte via pollen tube
• No longer need film of water to fertilize
Ovulate cone
• very small and fleshy when young
• Forms the “Pine Cone” with seeds
– often matures over 2-3 years
• form on branch tips to catch pollen
• 2 megasporangia form on each scale or
sporophyll
– Megasporangia form 2 ovules
– They become the 2 mature
seeds per scale in the pine cone
Ovule
• Forms inside female (ovulate) cone
• Megasporangia on sporophylls under go
meiosis – one surviving (n) megaspore.
• Megaspore grows inside by mitosis
integuments (2n) to become female
gametophyte
– With 3 archegonia and eggs (pine).
• Zygote develops into embryo, inside nutritive
female gametophyte tissue.
• Embryo goes dormant, integuments harden
and ovule now becomes a seed

(c) A flower pollinated by nocturnal animals.
Some angiosperms, such as this cactus,
depend mainly on nocturnal pollinators,
including bats. Common adaptations
of such plants include large, light-colored,
highly fragrant flowers that nighttime
pollinators can locate.
