Seed Plants. The sporophyte is also the dominant generation in seed plants. Seed plants are vascular plants that produce seeds and include some nonflowering plants (like pine trees) and flowering plants (like oak trees and roses). So when you see any of these plants, you are looking at the sporophyte. sporophyte is created by sexual reproduction of the gametophyte generation. Gametophytes make haploid unicellular gametes, or sperm and eggs. When a sperm cell fuses with an egg cell this is called fertilization. It creates a unicellular diploid zygote.
In flowering plants, the. large, familiar form that consists of roots, shoots, leaves, and reproductive structures (flowers and fruit) is diploid and is called the sporophyte. The sporophyte produces haploid microscopic gametophytes that are dependent on tissues produced by the flower.
