Abstract
Developmental stages of microsporangium and male gametophyte. megasporangium and female gametophyte of Passiflora calcarata Mast, are described. Double fertilization has been observed. The endosperm is nuclear to start with but, later becomes cellular. Its structure and behaviour are described. The seed-coat is organised by both the integuments. The structure of seed-coat and formation of ingrowths are explained in detail. Aril development is followed. I express my sincere gratitude to Professor P. Maheshwari, University of Delhi, Professor L. N. Rao, Doctors S. B. Kausik and K.N. Narayan, Central College, Bangalore, for their constant encouragement and valuable suggestions during this study. I am also thankful to Doctors M. A. Rau and K. Subramanyam, for correcting the manuscript and the Systematic Botanist, Coimbatore Herbarium, Coimbatore, for determining the species investigated here
