Abstract

Sexual reproduction in any organism must fulfill two primary functions, maintain stability of the species and provide a reasonable degree of genetic variability within it. These functions are attained through the ability to recognize and select suitable gametes for fertilization. Different groups of plants display variations in the operation of the recognition process. In cryptogams, male and female gametes are released free into an aqueous medium and hence are in direct contact; thus recognition is dependent on the gametes themselves — no other cell or tissue being involved.
