A stylized diagram depicts a mature fern gametophyte (prothallus), the haploid (n) thalloid stage in Pteridophyta. In botany and plant reproductive biology, this photosynthetic plant body bears antheridia scattered across the posterior surface and archegonia clustered near the apical notch, while numerous rhizoids project from the ventral side for anchorage and water uptake. Within the alternation-of-generations hierarchy, this gametophyte produces sperm and eggs and supports fertilization, giving rise to the diploid sporophyte of ferns and allied taxa.
