Reproduction Cycle: Seed Plants
The way plants reproduce is a totally fascinating process. Out of the more than 300,000 different kinds of plants, more than half are seed plants. Seed plants make their own seeds from which new plants grow. Other ways plants can make new plants are from spores, rhizomes, bulbs, tubers, corms, cuttings, grafts, and buds. Seeds are made by flowers in some plants and by cones in other plants.

Reproduction Cycle: Flowering Plants Advanced
The plant life cycle has mitosis occurring in spores, produced by meiosis, that germinate into the gametophyte phase. Gametophyte size ranges from three cells (in pollen) to several million (in a "lower plant" such as moss).

Reproduction Cycle: Flowers & Reproduction
Flowers are the reproductive structures of flowering plants. Once the pollen has been transferred from one flower to another flower, fertilization takes place.

Reproduction Cycle: Seed Germination
Plant physiologists began to assist in the understanding of seed germination as the brewing industry sought to improve the alcohol yield in beer making. The industry already knew that it was important to sprout barley seeds.
