Sporogenesis and gametogenesis are important events before the act of fertilisation. Formation of megaspore is megasporogenesis and formation of microspore is microsporogenesis. The fusion of male and female gamete is known as amphimixis or syngamy. The generative cell in pollen divides mitotically to form male gametes and process is called gametogenesis.
