| While many lycophytes have their sporophylls scattered along their stem, most produce them in a strobilus. |
| The male strobilus development is completed in a single year. |
| Unlike most seed plants, however, the pollen and ovule-bearing organs are usually produced together in a bisporangiate strobilus called a flower. |
| Cone, also called strobilus, in botany, mass of scales or bracts, usually ovate in shape, containing the reproductive organs of certain nonflowering plants. |
| The cycles refers to the completion of female strobilus development from initiation to seed maturation. |
| The pollen-producing strobilus is a loose, pendulous, catkinlike structure consisting of a main axis to which are attached numerous appendages, each of which usually bears two microsporangia at its tip. |
