The 28 pages that link to Ovule, each with the reason it gives.

• PollinationRelated: In seed plants without flowers, pollen is transferred directly to this structure.

• ConiferRelated: Conifer ovules sit exposed on cone scales rather than inside an ovary.

• FlowerBroader topic: Fertilized ovules inside the flower's ovary develop into seeds.

• FruitRelated: Ovules inside the ovary become the seeds enclosed by a fruit.

• GymnospermRelated: Gymnosperm ovules are exposed rather than enclosed in an ovary.

• PollenRelated: Pollen’s sperm must reach an ovule for fertilization.

• Seed plantBroader topic: Seed plants form seeds from ovules after fertilization.

• Seed coneBroader topic: Ovules sit on seed-cone scales before fertilization.

• Seed coatNarrower topic: The seed coat develops from the ovule’s outer integuments.

• Conifer coneRelated: Ovules form on seed-cone scales and become seeds after fertilization.

• ApomixisNarrower topic: Apomictic embryos and embryo sacs arise within this seed-forming structure.

• Double fertilizationRelated: It houses the cells involved in both fusion events.

• Pollen tubeRelated: The tube grows toward an ovule to deliver sperm.

• CarpelRelated: Ovules are borne inside the carpel’s ovary.

• HeterosporyRelated: The ovule retains the megaspore and female gametophyte within the parent sporophyte.

• Pine coneBroader topic: Ovules sit on female cone scales and become seeds after fertilization.

• Fertilization in plantsRelated: The egg is housed inside the ovule before fertilization.

• Seed developmentNarrower topic: Seed development transforms this fertilized structure into a mature seed.

• ArilNarrower topic: Aril development begins in tissues associated with the ovule before or during seed formation.

• Ginkgo bilobaRelated: Ginkgo ovules receive pollen and support fertilization before becoming seeds.

• GossypiumRelated: Cotton fibers begin as epidermal cells on the ovule before it matures into a seed.

• GynoeciumBroader topic: Ovules develop inside the gynoecium and become seeds after fertilization.

• CycadRelated: Female cycad cones bear ovules that become seeds after fertilization.

• JuniperRelated: Each fertilized juniper ovule can develop into a seed enclosed by fleshy cone tissue.

• Plant reproductionBroader topic: Fertilization occurs within the ovule, which later matures into a seed.

• BennettitalesRelated: Bennettitalean reproductive structures included ovules borne among specialized organs.

• PinalesRelated: Exposed ovules on cone scales give gymnosperm seeds their defining arrangement.

• PteridospermBroader topic: Pteridosperm ovules reveal seed reproduction in plants with fernlike leaves.
