An increasingly robust phylogenetic framework based on molecular and fossil data clarifies the sequence of evolutionary innovations in land plants. Oogamy and cellular novelties (phragmoplast, plasmodesmata, incipient meristems) evolved in aquatic streptophytes. Invasion of the land entailed interpolation of the sporophyte, jacketed gametangia and sporangia, and air-dispersed spores, followed by stomata. Origin of vascular plants involved branching of the sporophyte and stepwise evolution of vascular tissue. Leaves originated independently in lycophytes and euphyllophytes; in some euphyllophytes leaves were derived from single dichotomous branches, in others from whole branch systems. In seed plants, secondary growth evolved before the seed. Pinnately compound leaves were replaced by simple leaves in coniferophytes. The origin of the angiosperm flower remains unresolved, but bitegmic ovules may be derived from cupules, and the ancestral carpel can be reconstructed as ascidiate. Evolution of double fertilization was a stepwise process that continued within angiosperms; vessels also evolved within the group. Monocots show major reorganization tied to loss of secondary growth, while pentamerous flowers evolved from dimerous within eudicots.
