Lectures by Erin Barley Kathleen Fitzpatrick Plant Diversity II: The Evolution of Seed Plants Chapter 30

2. Overview: Transforming the World Seeds changed the course of plant evolution, enabling their bearers to become the dominant producers in most terrestrial ecosystems Seed plants originated about 360 million years ago A seed consists of an embryo and nutrients surrounded by a protective coat Domestication of seed plants had begun by 8,000 years ago and allowed for permanent settlements © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

4. Concept 30.1: Seeds and pollen grains are key adaptations for life on land In addition to seeds, the following are common to all seed plants –Reduced gametophytes –Heterospory –Ovules –Pollen © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

5. Advantages of Reduced Gametophytes The gametophytes of seed plants develop within the walls of spores that are retained within tissues of the parent sporophyte © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

10. Heterospory: The Rule Among Seed Plants The ancestors of seed plants were likely homosporous, while seed plants are heterosporous Megasporangia produce megaspores that give rise to female gametophytes Microsporangia produce microspores that give rise to male gametophytes © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

11. Ovules and Production of Eggs An ovule consists of a megasporangium, megaspore, and one or more protective integuments Gymnosperm megaspores have one integument Angiosperm megaspores usually have two integuments © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

13. Pollen and Production of Sperm Microspores develop into pollen grains, which contain the male gametophytes Pollination is the transfer of pollen to the part of a seed plant containing the ovules Pollen eliminates the need for a film of water and can be dispersed great distances by air or animals If a pollen grain germinates, it gives rise to a pollen tube that discharges sperm into the female gametophyte within the ovule © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

17. Seeds provide some evolutionary advantages over spores –They may remain dormant for days to years, until conditions are favorable for germination –Seeds have a supply of stored food –They may be transported long distances by wind or animals © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

18. Concept 30.2: Gymnosperms bear “naked” seeds, typically on cones Gymnosperms means “naked seeds” The seeds are exposed on sporophylls that form cones Angiosperm seeds are found in fruits, which are mature ovaries © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

20. Gymnosperm Evolution Fossil evidence reveals that by the late Devonian period some plants, called progymnosperms, had begun to acquire some adaptations that characterize seed plants © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

21. Figure 30.4

22. Living seed plants can be divided into two clades: gymnosperms and angiosperms Gymnosperms appear early in the fossil record about 305 million years ago and dominated Mesozoic (251–65 million years ago) terrestrial ecosystems Gymnosperms were better suited than nonvascular plants to drier conditions © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

23. Angiosperms began to replace gymnosperms near the end of the Mesozoic Angiosperms now dominate more terrestrial ecosystems Today, cone-bearing gymnosperms called conifers dominate in the northern latitudes © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

24. The gymnosperms consist of four phyla –Cycadophyta (cycads) –Gingkophyta (one living species: Ginkgo biloba) –Gnetophyta (three genera: Gnetum, Ephedra, Welwitschia) –Coniferophyta (conifers, such as pine, fir, and redwood) © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

25. Phylum Cycadophyta Individuals have large cones and palmlike leaves These thrived during the Mesozoic, but relatively few species exist today © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

46. The Life Cycle of a Pine: A Closer Look Three key features of the gymnosperm life cycle are –Dominance of the sporophyte generation –Development of seeds from fertilized ovules –The transfer of sperm to ovules by pollen The life cycle of a pine provides an example © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Animation: Pine Life Cycle

47. The pine tree is the sporophyte and produces sporangia in male and female cones Small cones produce microspores called pollen grains, each of which contains a male gametophyte The familiar larger cones contain ovules, which produce megaspores that develop into female gametophytes It takes nearly three years from cone production to mature seed © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

54. Characteristics of Angiosperms All angiosperms are classified in a single phylum, Anthophyta, from the Greek anthos for flower Angiosperms have two key adaptations –Flowers –Fruits © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

55. Flowers The flower is an angiosperm structure specialized for sexual reproduction Many species are pollinated by insects or animals, while some species are wind-pollinated © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

56. A flower is a specialized shoot with up to four types of modified leaves –Sepals, which enclose the flower –Petals, which are brightly colored and attract pollinators –Stamens, which produce pollen –Carpels, which produce ovules © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

57. A stamen consists of a stalk called a filament, with a sac called an anther where the pollen is produced A carpel consists of an ovary at the base and a style leading up to a stigma, where pollen is received © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Video: Flower Blooming (time lapse)

58. Stamen Anther Filament Stigma Carpel Style Ovary Petal Sepal Ovule Figure 30.7

59. Fruits A fruit typically consists of a mature ovary but can also include other flower parts Fruits protect seeds and aid in their dispersal Mature fruits can be either fleshy or dry © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Animation: Fruit Development

72. The Angiosperm Life Cycle The flower of the sporophyte is composed of both male and female structures Male gametophytes are contained within pollen grains produced by the microsporangia of anthers The female gametophyte, or embryo sac, develops within an ovule contained within an ovary at the base of a stigma Most flowers have mechanisms to ensure cross- pollination between flowers from different plants of the same species © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

73. A pollen grain that has landed on a stigma germinates and the pollen tube of the male gametophyte grows down to the ovary The ovule is entered by a pore called the micropyle Double fertilization occurs when the pollen tube discharges two sperm into the female gametophyte within an ovule © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

74. One sperm fertilizes the egg, while the other combines with two nuclei in the central cell of the female gametophyte and initiates development of food-storing endosperm The triploid endosperm nourishes the developing embryo Within a seed, the embryo consists of a root and two seed leaves called cotyledons © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

80. Angiosperm Evolution Darwin called the origin of angiosperms an “abominable mystery” Angiosperms originated at least 140 million years ago During the late Mesozoic, the major branches of the clade diverged from their common ancestor Scientists are studying fossils, refining phylogenies, and investigating developmental patterns to resolve the mystery © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

Developmental Patterns in Angiosperms Egg formation in the angiosperm Amborella resembles that of the gymnosperms In early angiosperms, the two integuments appear to originate separately Researchers are currently studying expression of flower development genes in gymnosperm and angiosperm species © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

89. Angiosperm Diversity Angiosperms comprise more than 250,000 living species Previously, angiosperms were divided into two main groups –Monocots (one cotyledon) –Dicots (two dicots) DNA studies suggest that monocots form a clade, but dicots are polyphyletic © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

90. The clade eudicot (“true” dicots) includes most dicots The rest of the former dicots form several small lineages Basal angiosperms are less derived and include the flowering plants belonging to the oldest lineages Magnoliids share some traits with basal angiosperms but evolved later © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

91. Basal Angiosperms Three small lineages constitute the basal angiosperms These include Amborella trichopoda, water lilies, and star anise © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

Concept 30.4: Human welfare depends greatly on seed plants No group of plants is more important to human survival than seed plants Plants are key sources of food, fuel, wood products, and medicine Our reliance on seed plants makes preservation of plant diversity critical © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

120. Products from Seed Plants Most of our food comes from angiosperms Six crops (wheat, rice, maize, potatoes, cassava, and sweet potatoes) yield 80% of the calories consumed by humans Modern crops are products of relatively recent genetic change resulting from artificial selection Many seed plants provide wood Secondary compounds of seed plants are used in medicines © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
