In flowering plants, archesporium cells undergo periclinal (transverse) division to form outer primary parietal layer and inner sporogenous cells. Primary parietal wall after few more periclinal divisions form anther wall and sporogenous cells give rise to sporogenous tissue.

In campylotropous ovule, the body is curved but the embryo sac is straight eg. Capsella. In anatropous ovule, the body of ovule is inverted and gets fused with funiculus along its whole length on one side (most of the angiosperms). In orthotropous condition, the body of ovule lies straight and upright over the funicle. e.g. Piperaceae, Polygonaceae.
