The term ''gymnosperm'' comes from the composite word in {{lang-el|γυμνόσπερμος}} ({{lang-el|γυμνός|translit=gymnos|lit=naked|label=none}} and {{lang-el|σπέρμα|translit=sperma|lit=seed|label=none}}), literally meaning 'naked seeds'. The name is based on the unenclosed condition of their seeds (called [[ovule]]s in their unfertilized state). The non-encased condition of their seeds contrasts with the seeds and ovules of flowering plants ([[angiosperms]]), which are enclosed within an [[Ovary (botany)|ovary]]. Gymnosperm seeds develop either on the surface of scales or [[Leaf|leaves]], which are often modified to form [[Conifer cone|cones]], or on their own as in [[Taxus|yew]], ''[[Torreya]]'', ''[[Ginkgo]]''.<ref name="TPL">{{cite web|url=http://www.theplantlist.org/browse/G/|title=Gymnosperms on The Plant List|publisher=Theplantlist.org|access-date=2013-07-24|archive-date=2013-08-24|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130824024109/http://www.theplantlist.org/browse/G/|url-status=dead}}</ref> Gymnosperm lifecycles involve [[alternation of generations]]. They have a dominant [[diploid]] [[sporophyte]] phase and a reduced [[haploid]] [[gametophyte]] phase which is dependent on the sporophytic phase. The term "gymnosperm" is often used in [[paleobotany]] to refer to (the [[paraphyletic]] group of) all non-angiosperm seed plants. In that case, to specify the modern [[monophyletic]] group of gymnosperms, the term '''Acrogymnospermae''' is sometimes used. The gymnosperms and [[angiosperms]] together comprise the [[spermatophyte]]s or seed plants. The spermatophytes are subdivided into five [[Division (botany)|divisions]], the angiosperms and four divisions of gymnosperms: the [[Cycadophyta]], [[Ginkgophyta]], [[Gnetophyta]], and [[Pinophyta]] (also known as Coniferophyta).

class="mw-redirect" title="Vascular plants">vascular plants</a>, have a sporophyte-dominant life cycle, which means they spend most of their life cycle with diploid cells, while the <a href="/wiki/Gametophyte" title="Gametophyte">gametophyte</a> (gamete-bearing phase) is relatively short-lived. Like all <a href="/wiki/Seed_plants" class="mw-redirect" title="Seed plants">seed plants</a>, they are <a href="/wiki/Heterospory" title="Heterospory">heterosporous</a>, having two spore types, <a href="/wiki/Microspore" title="Microspore">microspores</a> (male) and <a href="/wiki/Megaspore" title="Megaspore">megaspores</a> (female) that are typically produced in pollen cones or ovulate cones, respectively.<sup id="cite_ref-Concepts_of_Biology_29-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Concepts_of_Biology-29">&#91;29&#93;</a></sup> The exception is the females in the cycad genus <i><a href="/wiki/Cycas" title="Cycas">Cycas</a></i>, which form a loose structure called megasporophylls instead of cones.<sup id="cite_ref-30" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-30">&#91;30&#93;</a></sup> As with all heterosporous plants, the gametophytes develop within the spore wall. Pollen grains (microgametophytes) mature from microspores, and ultimately produce sperm cells.<sup id="cite_ref-Concepts_of_Biology_29-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Concepts_of_Biology-29">&#91;29&#93;</a></sup> Megagametophytes develop from megaspores and are retained within the ovule. Gymnosperms produce multiple <a href="/wiki/Archegonium" title="Archegonium">archegonia</a>, which produce the female gamete. </p><p>During pollination, pollen grains are physically transferred between plants from the pollen cone to the ovule. Pollen is usually moved by wind or insects. Whole grains enter each ovule through a microscopic gap in the ovule coat (<a href="/wiki/Integument" title="Integument">integument</a>) called the micropyle. The pollen grains mature further inside the ovule and produce sperm cells. Two main modes of fertilization are found in gymnosperms. Cycads and <i><a href="/wiki/Ginkgo" title="Ginkgo">Ginkgo</a></i> have <a href="/wiki/Flagellum" title="Flagellum">flagellated</a> motile sperm<sup id="cite_ref-AJB_31-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-AJB-31">&#91;31&#93;</a></sup> that swim directly to the egg inside the ovule, whereas conifers and <a href="/wiki/Gnetophyte" class="mw-redirect" title="Gnetophyte">gnetophytes</a> have sperm with no flagella that are moved along a <a href="/wiki/Pollen_tube" title="Pollen tube">pollen tube</a> to the egg. After <a href="/wiki/Fertilisation" title="Fertilisation">syngamy</a> (joining of the sperm and egg cell), the zygote develops into an embryo (young sporophyte). More than one embryo is usually initiated in each gymnosperm seed. The mature seed comprises the embryo and the remains of the female <a href="/wiki/Gametophyte#Seed_plants" title="Gametophyte">gametophyte</a>, which serves as a food supply, and the <a href="/wiki/Seed-coat" class="mw-redirect" title="Seed-coat">seed coat</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-Walters1996_32-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Walters1996-32">&#91;32&#93;</a></sup> </p> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Genetics">Genetics</span><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Gymnosperm&amp;action=edit&amp;section=5" title="Edit section: Genetics"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></h2> <p>The first published sequenced genome for any gymnosperm was the genome of <i><a href="/wiki/Picea_abies" title="Picea abies">Picea abies</a></i> in 2013.<sup id="cite_ref-33" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-33">&#91;33&#93;</a></sup> </p> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Uses">Uses</span><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Gymnosperm&amp;action=edit&amp;section=6" title="Edit section: Uses"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></h2> <p>Gymnosperms have major economic uses.
