The female gametophyteâspecifically termed a megagametophyte âis also called the embryo sac in angiosperms. The megagametophyte produces an egg cell (or several egg cells in some groups) for the purpose of fertilization.he ovary of the gynoecium produces one or more ovules and ultimately becomes the fruit wall. Ovules are attached to the placenta in the ovary through a stalk-like structure known as a funiculus (plural, funiculi). Different patterns of ovule attachment, or placentation, can be found among plant species, these include:
A comparison of the male gametophytes among seed plants has been carried out but focused on the evolution of pollen grain polarity and siphonogamy (see Rudall and Bateman 2007). In gymnosperms, a review on pollen tube growth and development is available (see Fernando et al. 2005a), but it is limited to the conifers.n gymnosperms, pollen grains represent the developing male gametophytes that are surrounded by a complex wall, the pollen wall, composed of an outer layer called the exine (which is subdivided into ectexine and endexine) and the inner layer is the intine (Faegri and Iverson 1989).
