    Classification of Gymnosperms: Gymnosperms are a diverse group of vascular plants and they possess seeds borne naked on a sporophyll

    and not in an ovary. There are about 70 genera and 725 living species of gymnosperms. Sporne (1965) classified Gymnosperms into 3 Classes. Class-1: Cycadopsida with 4 orders Pteridospermales, Bennettitales, Pentoxylales and Cycadales. The class Cycadopsida is characterized with plants are palm like, leaves pinnate with central midrib; megasporophylls are not aggregated in cones, but borne separately like foliage leaves; Megasporophyll bears two or more ovules. Microsporophylls aggregate to form male cone. Eg. Cycas Class-2: Coniferopsida with 4 orders Cordaitales, Coniferales, Taxales and Ginkgoales. This class is characterized with mostly ever green trees, leaves are needle or scale like, wood contains resin canals, male and female cones are present. Eg. Pinus Class-3: Gnetopsida with only one order Gnetales: This class is characterized with trees, shrubs or woody climbers, vegetative appearance is mostly like angiosperm with large leaves, oval and entire wood contain vessels. Male strobilus contains staminate flower and female strobilus contain ovules. Eg.Gnetum
