A complex reproductive structure borne by a seed-plant sporophyte, consisting of outer, sporophytic tissues that enclose a haploid, gametogenic tissue usually regarded as a highly reduced megagametophyte. Following fertilization, the entire structure matures to become a seed that contains an embryo, the first stage of the next sporophytic generation. Ovules (and seeds) are borne naked on megasporophylls (in Pinophyta) or within an ovary (in Magnoliophyta).
