Floral Organs
![Page 3: CHAPTER 38 PLANT REPRODUCTION](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815e7b550346895dccff0e/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
• Sepals and petals are nonreproductive organs.• Sepals: enclose and protect the floral bud
before it opens; usually green and more leaf-like in appearance.
• In many angiosperms, the petals are brightly colored to attract pollinators.

Stamens: male reproductive organs
• Stalk: the filament
• Anther: pollen sacs.
- The pollen sacs produce pollen.
![Page 5: CHAPTER 38 PLANT REPRODUCTION](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815e7b550346895dccff0e/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Carpels: female reproductive organs• Ovary- base of the carpel
- Ovules- Egg cell
- Embryo Sac (female gametophyte), i.e., seed
• Stigma- platform for pollen grain• Style- slender neck, connects
ovary and stigma
![Page 6: CHAPTER 38 PLANT REPRODUCTION](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815e7b550346895dccff0e/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
• The stamens and carpels of flowers contain sporangia, within which the spores and then gametophytes develop.• The male gametophytes are sperm-
producing structures called pollen grains, which form within the pollen sacs of anthers.• The female gametophytes are egg-
producing structures called embryo sacs, which form within the ovules in ovaries.
![Page 7: CHAPTER 38 PLANT REPRODUCTION](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815e7b550346895dccff0e/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
• Pollination begins the process by which the male and female gametophytes are brought together so that their gametes can unite.• Pollination- when pollen released from anthers
lands on a stigma.
• Each pollen grain produces a pollen tube, which grows down into the ovary via the style and discharges sperm into the embryo sac, fertilizing the egg.
• The zygote gives rise to an embryo.
• The ovule develops into a seed and the entire ovary develops into a fruit containing one or more seeds.
• Fruits disperse seeds away from the source plant where the seed germinates.

Classification of Flowers• Complete Versus Incomplete Flowers• Complete: possess sepals, petals, stamens, and
carpels
• Incomplete: lack one or more of these components
• Perfect Versus Imperfect Flowers• Perfect: possess both stamens and carpels
• Imperfect: possess either stamens (staminate) or carpels (carpelate), but not both

Monoecious Versus Dioecious
• Monoecious: both staminate and carpellate flowers are found together on the same plant (e.g., corn).
• Dioecious: staminate flowers occur on separate plants from those that carry carpellate flowers (e.g., date palms).
![Page 12: CHAPTER 38 PLANT REPRODUCTION](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815e7b550346895dccff0e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Angiosperm Life Cycle
![Page 15: CHAPTER 38 PLANT REPRODUCTION](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815e7b550346895dccff0e/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• The development of angiosperm gametophytes involves meiosis and mitosis.
![Page 16: CHAPTER 38 PLANT REPRODUCTION](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815e7b550346895dccff0e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• The male gametophyte begins its development within the sporangia (pollen sacs) of the anther.• Within the sporangia are microsporocytes,
each of which will from four haploid microspores through meiosis.
• Each microspore can eventually give rise to a haploid male gametophyte.
![Page 17: CHAPTER 38 PLANT REPRODUCTION](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815e7b550346895dccff0e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• A microspore divides once by mitosis and produces a generative cell and a tube cell.• The generative cell forms sperm.
• The tube cell, enclosing the generative cell, produces the pollen tube, which delivers sperm to the egg.
![Page 18: CHAPTER 38 PLANT REPRODUCTION](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815e7b550346895dccff0e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Pollen Tubes
![Page 19: CHAPTER 38 PLANT REPRODUCTION](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815e7b550346895dccff0e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Pollen Grains• This is a pollen grain, an immature male gametophyte.
![Page 20: CHAPTER 38 PLANT REPRODUCTION](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815e7b550346895dccff0e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Barriers to Self-Fertilization• Stamens and carpels may mature at different times.
• Self-incompatibility- plant rejects its own pollen
• Plant design prevents an animal pollinator from transferring pollen from the anthers to the stigma of the same flower.
![Page 21: CHAPTER 38 PLANT REPRODUCTION](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815e7b550346895dccff0e/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
The Genetic Basis for the Inhibition of Self-Fertilization
S-genes: self-incompatibility gene• If a pollen grain and the carpel’s stigma have matching
alleles at the S-locus, then the pollen grain fails to initiate or complete the formation of a pollen tube.
![Page 22: CHAPTER 38 PLANT REPRODUCTION](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815e7b550346895dccff0e/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Fate of the Endosperm• Typical Monocot (e.g., corn)
• endosperm present in substantial quantities in mature seed.
• cotyledon absorbs nutrients from endosperm during seed germination.
• Typical Dicot (e.g, garden bean)• endosperm completely absorbed into cotyledons before seed
maturation.
• Other Dicots (e.g., castor bean)• endosperm only partially absorbed by cotyledons during seed
maturation.
• remainder of endosperm absorbed by cotyledons during germination.

Seed Structure
![Page 28: CHAPTER 38 PLANT REPRODUCTION](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815e7b550346895dccff0e/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Relationship of the Flower to the Fruit
![Page 29: CHAPTER 38 PLANT REPRODUCTION](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815e7b550346895dccff0e/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
• As the seeds are developing from ovules, the ovary of the flower is developing into a fruit, which protects the enclosed seeds and aids in their dispersal by wind or animals.• Pollination triggers hormonal changes that cause the
ovary to begin its transformation into a fruit.
• If a flower has not been pollinated, fruit usually does not develop, and the entire flower withers and falls away.
The ovary develops into a fruit adapted for seed dispersal
![Page 30: CHAPTER 38 PLANT REPRODUCTION](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062310/56815e7b550346895dccff0e/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Fruit Formation• The ovary wall becomes the pericarp, the
thickened wall of the fruit
• Other flower parts wither and are shed.• However, in some angiosperms, other floral parts
contribute to what we call a fruit.

Functions of the Fruit
• Protection of the enclosed seed (e.g., pea pods).
• Facilitating dispersal.• wings for wind dispersal (e.g., maple).
• hocks and barbs for attachment to animal fur or avian feathers (e.g., cocklebur).
• sweet, fleshy fruit encouraging ingestion and dispersal of seeds by animals (e.g., cherry).
