Cone and ovule development in the Podocarpus species from Argentina

This paper describes the development of female cone, the megasporogenesis, megagametogenesis, pollen germination and embryogenesis in three native species of Podocarpus from Argentina. During the first stage the primordium of the ovule is covered by the bracts. The megaspore mother cell gives rise t...
