A schematic diagram of fertilization within a gymnosperm ovule is shown. A pollen tube (PT) penetrates the nucellus to the archegonium (AG) inside the female gametophyte (FG; megagametophyte), delivering sperm nuclei to the egg cell for syngamy, producing a diploid zygote while the surplus male gamete usually degenerates. The hierarchy illustrated is gametes and zygote within the archegonium, embedded in the megagametophyte of the ovule. This figure pertains to botany and plant reproductive biology, highlighting the process that initiates embryo and seed development in gymnosperms.
