Fern Life Cycle
52
Seed producing plants Gymnosperms Sporophyte dominant Conifers & relatives Heterosporous –Mega- and micro- –Small gametophye matures in protected cones Female in ovulate cones Male in staminate cones –Wind blown-pollen Seeds protected in ovulate cone –Dispersed by wind, animal, water sometimes Angiosperms Sporophyte dominant Flowering plants Heterosporous –Mega- and micro- –Small gametophye matures in protected flowers Female in flower ovary Male in flower anthers –Animal pollination and some wind-blown Seeds protected in fruit –Dispersed by animal mostly
53
Seed? Ovule to seed Ovule: sporophyte tissue surrounding sporangia Seed coat: protective diploid tissue Embryo: diploid zygote develops to sporophyte Endosperm: nutritive tissue surrounding embryo to feed it until it can photosynthesize on its own
54
Evolutionary importance of Seeds These plants produce pollen –Pollen produces sperm nuclei (no water requrd) Expand over drier habitats –Very protective over seasons (dormancy) Endosperm (embryonic food) – headstart Seed dispersal not dependent on water –Collected and distributed further Flowering plants…even further in fruits

92
Vascular tissue Transport water, nutrients and food between roots and shoots System of xylem and phloem cells Varied organization in roots & shoots
93
Xylem cells – mature cells that become lignified (thickened 2 o cellulose), dies, and perforates from lysosomes Tracheids –Primitive vascular plants –Tapered, pits on ends, less capillary action vs. vessel elements Vessel elements –Less primitive vascular plants –Pits on sides, open ends –Stacked to form long tubes –Advanced capillary action Transpiration –Roots → shoots → leaves → out –Via: root pressure and diffusion, capillary pressure, negative pressure of evaporation and cohesion
94
Phloem cells – living cells that transport sugars (sap) Sieve tubes –no nucleus nor organelles –Open sieve plates Companion cells –Nucleated –Adjoined to sieve tubes via plasmodesmata –Controls sieve tubes; regulates movement Translocation –Movement of sugars; sources to sinks leaves → roots, fruits, &/or meristems
95
Plant Structure Apical meristem –Mitotic division –Stem & root tips –Primary growth (length) Ground meristem –Mitotic division –Ground tissues: Parenchyma – large; storage Collenchyma – smaller; flexible support Schlerenchyma – lignified; rigid support; woody Cambium –Mitotic secondary growth –e.g. Vascular cambium –e.g. Cork cambium

111
Fruit – ripened ovary that protects the seeds Ripened? Layers of the ovary = Pericarp –Exocarp Outer layer /ovarian wall –Mesocarp Middle layer –Endocarp Inner/adjacent to ovules
112
Fleshy fruits One or more ovarian layer is fleshy –Drupe Endocarp is hardened; pit or stone Peaches, nectarines, apricots, etc –Berry All or most pericarp is fleshy Grape, tomato, etc –Pepo Berry with hard thick rind Melons, pumpkins, etc –Hesperidium Berry with leathery rind Citrus –Pome Swollen receptacle around ovary or core Apple, pear
113
Dry fruits Lacks fleshy tissue –Dehiscent fruits Split along a seam to disperse seeds Legumes – two seams Capsules – multiple seams Bean, pea pods, peanuts, etc –Indehiscent Do not split on a seam Achenes, grains, nuts Corn, wheat, etc
114
Simple fruits –Single ovary of one flower Aggregate fruits –Many ovaries of one flower Multiple fruits –Many ovaries of many clustered flowers (inflorescence) Accessory fruits –Tissue other than ovary ripens (swollen)
115
What is a coconut? Fleshy? Dry? Other? Drupe: a single fleshy fruit with a hard stone which contains the single seed
116
Plant Hormones (Ch. 39) chemical communication and regulation Auxins –Cell elongation –Apical dominance –Abscission suppression Slows the shedding of leaves, flowers, fruits –Fruit maturation –Geotropism Phototropism Gravitropism A.The tips have been removed. No auxin is produced and the shoots do not grow longer. B.The tips have been covered so light cannot reach them. Auxin is in the same concentration on both sides of the shoots, so they grow longer evenly on both sides. C. One side of the tips are in more light than the other side. Auxin is in a greater concentration on the shaded side, causing the cells there to grow longer than the cells on the light side.
117
Plant Hormones (Ch. 39) chemical communication and regulation Giberellins –GA or Giberellic acid –Growth Release some buds and seeds from dormancy Dwarf plants lack GA –Spray on grapes = bigger grapes Stem elongation –Spray on dwarf plants = taller plants Related to flowering in some plants Sold as common bio-fertilizer
118
Plant Hormones (Ch. 39) chemical communication and regulation Cytokinins –Cell division –Stimulate bud growth –Stimulates fruit & embryo development –Prevents leaf senescence Slows aging to decay With & without
119
Plant Hormones (Ch. 39) chemical communication and regulation Abscisic Acid –General growth inhibitor –Induces dormancy Wintering of buds and leaves –Closure of stomata Ethylene –Gaseous hormone –Plays role in fruit ripening –Fruit abscission (shedding) –One of the reasons why ripe bananas will “ripen” other fruits
