Sporopollenin Evolution

Sporopollenin Evolution is a theoretical construct in plant evolutionary biology that explains the origin and diversification of sporopollenin—a highly resistant biopolymer in land plant spores and pollen—through adaptive changes in its biochemical composition and biosynthetic pathways during the transition from aquatic to terrestrial environments.
