Although the taxonomic division Spermatophyta is no longer accepted, the term spermatophyte is used to refer collectively to the angiosperms (flowering plants) and gymnosperms (conifers, cycads, and allies).

The gymnosperms and angiosperms together constitute the spermatophytes or seed plants. The spermatophytes are subdivided into five divisions, the angiosperms and four divisions of gymnosperms: the Cycadophyta, Ginkgophyta, Gnetophyta, and Pinophyta (also known as Coniferophyta).
May 18, 2024 · Higher groups of seed plants lost flagellate spermatozoa and developed pollen tubes. The classes of Spermatophyta are Ginkgoopsida, Cycadopsida, Pinopsida, Gnetopsida, and Angiospermae. Ginkgoopsida is just one species; ginkgo or maidenhair tree (Ginkgo biloba).
The fifth extant division is the flowering plants, also known as angiosperms or magnoliophytes, the largest and most diverse group of spermatophytes: Angiosperms, the flowering plants, possess seeds enclosed in a fruit, unlike gymnosperms.
Sep 22, 2021 · Lower vascular plants, such as club mosses and ferns, are mostly homosporous (produce only one type of spore). In contrast, all seed plants, or spermatophytes, are heterosporous, forming two types of spores: megaspores (female) and microspores (male).
The ovules of these genera, unlike those of other gymnosperms, have two integuments instead of one, as in angiospermous ovules. Archegonia are present in the female gametophytes of Ephedra, but only eggs occur in those of Gnetum and Welwitschia. The sperm, like those of the conifers, lack flagella.

May 18, 2024 · Flowering plants (angiosperms, Angiospermae) are sometimes referred to as “Spermatophyta 2.0.”, or “upgraded gymnosperms”. In fact, there is no single character which unequivocally differs flowering plants from other seed plants.
