Evolutionary Trends in the plant kingdom.
As we glance back over the many types of plant life cycles that are found from algae to angiosperms, a number of evolutionary trends appear to be evident. One of these is a change from a population that is mostly haploid individuals to one that is a most entirely diploidan evolutionary trend toward a greater size and importance of the sporophyte 65 and a reduction in the size of the gametophyle generation.
