Fig. 5

a, b The sporulation on Tak-2 (a) and Mppgdh-3 (b) approximately 1-month post fertilization with sperm from Tak-1. Images are representative of three archegoniophores. (c–h) The cross-section images of sporophytes at 1-week (c, d), 2-week (e, f), and 3-week (g, h) post fertilization. Tak-2 x Tak-1 (c, e, g), Mppgdh-3 x Tak-1 (d, f, h). C calyptra, F foot, S seta, Sp sporangium.
