Plant Diversity II: The Evolution of Seed Plants
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
• Overview: Feeding the World
• Seeds changed the course of plant evolution
– Enabling their bearers to become the dominant producers in most terrestrial ecosystems

• Concept 30.1: The reduced gametophytes of seed plants are protected in ovules and pollen grains
• In addition to seeds, the following are common to all seed plants
– Reduced gametophytes
– Heterospory
– Ovules
– Pollen

Advantages of Reduced Gametophytes
• The gametophytes of seed plants
– Develop within the walls of spores retained within tissues of the parent sporophyte

Heterospory: The Rule Among Seed Plants
• Seed plants evolved from plants that had megasporangia
– Which produce megaspores that give rise to female gametophytes
• Seed plants evolved from plants that had microsporangia
– Which produce microspores that give rise to male gametophytes
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Ovules and Production of Eggs
• An ovule consists of
– A megasporangium, megaspore, and protective integuments
Figure 30.3a
(a) Unfertilized ovule. In this sectional view through the ovule of a pine (a gymnosperm), a fleshy megasporangium is surrounded by a protective layer of tissue called an integument. (Angiosperms have two integuments.)

Pollen and Production of Sperm
• Microspores develop into pollen grains
– Which contain the male gametophytes of plants
• Pollination
– Is the transfer of pollen to the part of a seed plant containing the ovules
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
• If a pollen grain germinates
– It gives rise to a pollen tube that discharges two sperm into the female gametophyte within the ovule
Figure 30.3b
(b) Fertilized ovule. A megaspore develops into a multicellular female gametophyte. The micropyle,the only opening through the integument, allowsentry of a pollen grain. The pollen grain contains amale gametophyte, which develops a pollen tubethat discharges sperm.

• Pollen, which can be dispersed by air or animals
– Eliminated the water requirement for fertilization
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
The Evolutionary Advantage of Seeds
• A seed
– Develops from the whole ovule
– Is a sporophyte embryo, along with its food supply, packaged in a protective coat
Figure 30.3c
Gymnosperm seed. Fertilization initiatesthe transformation of the ovule into a seed,which consists of a sporophyte embryo, a food supply, and a protective seed coat derived from the integument.

• Concept 30.2: Gymnosperms bear “naked” seeds, typically on cones
• Among the gymnosperms are many well-known conifers
– Or cone-bearing trees, including pine, fir, and redwood
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
• The gymnosperms include four plant phyla
– Cycadophyta
– Gingkophyta
– Gnetophyta
– Coniferophyta

Gymnosperm Evolution
• Fossil evidence reveals that by the late Devonian
– Some plants, called progymnosperms, had begun to acquire some adaptations that characterize seed plants
Figure 30.5
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
• Gymnosperms appear early in the fossil record
– And dominated the Mesozoic terrestrial ecosystems
• Living seed plants
– Can be divided into two groups: gymnosperms and angiosperms
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
A Closer Look at the Life Cycle of a Pine
• Key features of the gymnosperm life cycle include
– Dominance of the sporophyte generation, the pine tree
– The development of seeds from fertilized ovules
– The role of pollen in transferring sperm to ovules

• The life cycle of a pine
A pollen cone contains many microsporangia held in sporophylls. Each microsporangium contains microsporocytes (microspore mothercells). These undergo meiosis, giving rise tohaploid microspores that develop into pollen grains.
3
In mostconifer species,
each tree hasboth ovulate
and pollencones.
1
A pollen grainenters throughthe micropyleand germinates,forming a pollentube that slowlydigeststhrough themegasporangium.
4
While thepollen tubedevelops, themegasporocyte(megasporemother cell)undergoes meiosis,producing fourhaploid cells. Onesurvives as amegaspore.
5
The female gametophytedevelops within the megasporeand contains two or threearchegonia, each with an egg.
6
By the time the eggs are mature,two sperm cells have developed in thepollen tube, which extends to thefemale gametophyte. Fertilization occurswhen sperm and egg nuclei unite.
7
Fertilization usually occurs more than a year after pollination. All eggs
may be fertilized, but usually only one zygote develops into an embryo. The
ovule becomes a seed, consisting of an embryo, food supply, and seed coat.
8
An ovulate cone scale has twoovules, each containing a mega-sporangium. Only one ovule is shown.

• Concept 30.3: The reproductive adaptations of angiosperms include flowers and fruits
• Angiosperms
– Are commonly known as flowering plants
– Are seed plants that produce the reproductive structures called flowers and fruits
– Are the most widespread and diverse of all plants
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Characteristics of Angiosperms
• The key adaptations in the evolution of angiosperms
– Are flowers and fruits
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Flowers
• The flower
– Is an angiosperm structure specialized for sexual reproduction
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
• A flower is a specialized shoot with modified leaves
– Sepals, which enclose the flower
– Petals, which are brightly colored and attract pollinators
– Stamens, which produce pollen
– Carpels, which produce ovules

• Can be carried by wind, water, or animals to new locations, enhancing seed dispersal
Figure 30.9a–c
Wings enable maple fruits to be easily carried by the wind.
(a)
Seeds within berries and other edible fruits are often dispersed in animal feces.
(b)
The barbs of cockleburs facilitate seed dispersal by allowing the fruits to “hitchhike” on animals.

The Angiosperm Life Cycle
• In the angiosperm life cycle
– Double fertilization occurs when a pollen tube discharges two sperm into the female gametophyte within an ovule
– One sperm fertilizes the egg, while the other combines with two nuclei in the center cell of the female gametophyte and initiates development of food-storing endosperm
• The endosperm
– Nourishes the developing embryo

Anthers contain microsporangia.Each microsporangium contains micro-sporocytes (microspore mother cells) thatdivide by meiosis, producing microspores.
1 Microspores formpollen grains (containingmale gametophytes). Thegenerative cell will divideto form two sperm. Thetube cell will produce thepollen tube.
2
In the megasporangiumof each ovule, themegasporocyte divides bymeiosis and produces fourmegaspores. The survivingmegaspore in each ovuleforms a female gametophyte(embryo sac).
3
After pollina-tion, eventuallytwo sperm nucleiare discharged ineach ovule.
4
Double fertilization occurs. One spermfertilizes the egg, forming a zygote. Theother sperm combines with the two polarnuclei to form the nucleus of the endosperm,which is triploid in this example.
5
The zygotedevelops into an
embryo that ispackaged alongwith food into aseed. (The fruit
tissues surround-ing the seed are
not shown).
6
When a seedgerminates, the
embryo developsinto a mature
sporophyte.

Angiosperm Evolution
• Clarifying the origin and diversification of angiosperms
– Poses fascinating challenges to evolutionary biologists
• Angiosperms originated at least 140 million years ago
– And during the late Mesozoic, the major branches of the clade diverged from their common ancestor

An “Evo-Devo” Hypothesis of Flower Origins
• In hypothesizing how pollen-producing and ovule-producing structures were combined into a single flower
– Scientist Michael Frohlich proposed that the ancestor of angiosperms had separate pollen-producing and ovule-producing structures
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Angiosperm Diversity
• The two main groups of angiosperms
– Are monocots and eudicots
• Basal angiosperms
– Are less derived and include the flowering plants belonging to the oldest lineages
• Magnoliids
– Share some traits with basal angiosperms but are more closely related to monocots and eudicots

Evolutionary Links Between Angiosperms and Animals
• Pollination of flowers by animals and transport of seeds by animals
– Are two important relationships in terrestrial ecosystems
Figure 30.13a–c
(a) A flower pollinated by honeybees. This honeybee is harvesting pollen and nectar (a sugary solution secreted by flower glands) from a Scottish broom flower. The flower has a tripping mechanism that arches the stamens over the beeand dusts it with pollen, some ofwhich will rub off onto the stigmaof the next flower the bee visits.
(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.
(b) A flower pollinated by hummingbirds.The long, thin beak and tongue of this rufous hummingbird enable the animal to probe flowers that secrete nectar deep within floral tubes. Before the hummer leaves, anthers will dust its beak and head feathers with pollen. Many flowers that are pollinated by birds are red or pink, colors to which bird eyes are especially sensitive.
