5
Sexual reproduction 1.haploid gametogenesis in flowers: reproductive organs Female part = pistil (gynoecium) Stigma Style Ovary Ovules

Embryogenesis One sperm fuses with egg to form zygote Other fuses with central cell to form 3n endosperm Development starts immediately!
27
Embryogenesis Development starts immediately! Controlled by genes, auxin & cytokinins Apical cell after first division becomes embryo, basal cell becomes suspensor

33
Embryogenesis End result is seed with embryo packaged inside protective coat
34
Embryogenesis End result is seed with embryo packaged inside protective coat Endosperm feeds developing embryo (3n grows faster)
35
Embryogenesis End result is seed with embryo packaged inside protective coat Endosperm feeds developing embryo (3n grows faster) In many dicots endosperm is absorbed as seed develops

38
Embryogenesis Body plan is formed during embryogenesis: seedling that germinates is a juvenile plant with root and apical meristems, roots & shoots Later stages of seed development load nutrients and form protective coat
39
Embryogenesis Later stages of seed development load nutrients and form protective coat Final stages involve desiccation (to 5% moisture content) & dormancy
40
Embryogenesis Later stages of seed development involve loading nutrients and forming protective coat Final stages involve desiccation (to 5% moisture content) & dormancy -> Abscisic acid plays important role

42
Seed germination Coordinated with fruit ripening: fruit’s job is to protect & disperse seed Seeds remain dormant until sense appropriate conditions: some date palms germinated after 2000 years!

Seed germination Seeds remain dormant until sense appropriate conditions: some date palms germinated after 2000 years! Water
44
Seed germination Seeds remain dormant until sense appropriate conditions: some Lotus germinated after 2000 years! Water Temperature: some seeds require vernalization = prolonged cold spell
45
Seed germination Seeds remain dormant until sense appropriate conditions: some Lotus germinated after 2000 years! Water Temperature: some seeds require vernalization = prolonged cold spell May degrade hydrophobic seed coat
46
Seed germination Seeds remain dormant until sense appropriate conditions: Water Temperature: some seeds require vernalization = prolonged cold spell May degrade hydrophobic seed coat May disperse inhibitor (eg Abscisic acid)
47
Seed germination Seeds remain dormant until sense appropriate conditions: Water Temperature: some seeds require vernalization = prolonged cold spell May degrade hydrophobic seed coat May disperse inhibitor (eg Abscisic acid) Many require light
48
Seed germination Seeds remain dormant until sense appropriate conditions: Water Temperature: some seeds require vernalization = prolonged cold spell May degrade hydrophobic seed coat May disperse inhibitor (eg Abscisic acid) Many require light: says that they will soon be able to photosynthesize
49
Seed germination Seeds remain dormant until sense appropriate conditions: Water Temperature: some seeds require vernalization = prolonged cold spell May degrade hydrophobic seed coat May disperse inhibitor (eg Abscisic acid) Many require light: says that they will soon be able to photosynthesize: often small seeds with few reserves
50
Seed germination Seeds remain dormant until sense appropriate conditions: Water Temperature: some seeds require vernalization = prolonged cold spell Many require light: says that they will soon be able to photosynthesize: often small seeds with few reserves Some need acid treatment or scarification
51

52
Seed germination Seeds remain dormant until sense appropriate conditions: Water Temperature Many require light Some need acid treatment or scarification Passage through bird gut Some need fire
53
Seed germination Seeds remain dormant until sense appropriate conditions: Some need acid treatment or scarification Passage through bird gut Some need fire Hormones can also trigger (or stop) germination
54
Seed germination Seeds remain dormant until sense appropriate conditions: Hormones can also trigger (or stop) germination Germination is a two step process Imbibition is purely physical: seed swells as it absorbs water until testa pops. Even dead seeds do it.
55
Seed germination Germination is a two step process Imbibition is purely physical: seed swells as it absorbs water until testa pops. Even dead seeds do it. Next embryo must start metabolism and cell elongation
56
Seed germination Germination is a two step process Imbibition is purely physical: seed swells as it absorbs water until testa pops. Even dead seeds do it. Next embryo must start metabolism and cell elongation This part is sensitive to the environment, esp T & pO 2
57
Seed germination Germination is a two step process Imbibition is purely physical: seed swells as it absorbs water until testa pops. Even dead seeds do it. Next embryo must start metabolism and cell elongation This part is sensitive to the environment, esp T & pO 2 Once radicle has emerged, vegetative growth begins
58
Vegetative growth Once radicle has emerged, vegetative growth begins Juvenile plants in light undergo photomorphogenesis Initially live off reserves, but start making photosynthetic leaves
59
Vegetative growth Once radicle has emerged, vegetative growth begins Juvenile plants in light undergo photomorphogenesis Initially live off reserves, but start making photosynthetic leaves Roots grow down seeking water & nutrients
60
reproductive phase Eventually switch to reproductive phase & start flowering Are now adults!
61
reproductive phase Eventually switch to reproductive phase & start flowering Are now adults! Time needed varies from days to years
62
reproductive phase Eventually switch to reproductive phase & start flowering Are now adults! Time needed varies from days to years. Shoot apical meristem now starts making new organ: flowers, with many new structures & cell types
