Dr. Jithesh Krishnan R, Asst. Prof. at NSS College, Pandalam, specializes in studying Fossil Pteridophytes like Sphenophyllum and Zygopteris. These ancient plants date back to the Devonian period and showcase unique stem anatomy resembling roots. Sphenophyllum had slender shoots with whorled leaves,

Archegoniates are a group of primitive plants believed to have originated from ancestral green algae. They possess distinct reproductive structures such as archegonia, which house the egg cell and give rise to the sporophytic generation. Heterospory in archegoniates leads to the formation of microsp
