Plant Embryology: The Study of The Development of

This document discusses plant embryology, specifically focusing on the development of sporangia, gametophytes, embryos, and seeds in seed plants. It examines key structures and processes in angiosperm embryology such as anther type, anther wall development, microsporogenesis, pollen nucleus number, ovule nucellus type, megasporogenesis, megagametogenesis, ovule integument types, ovule micropyle types, ovule position, embryogeny, embryo type, endosperm development, seed storage tissue origin, composition, seed coat anatomy, and seed morphology.
