- The sporophyte develops within the female gametophyte. Examine the mature sporophyte image. The sporophyte is attached to the gametophyte by a foot. Spores are produced by meiosis in a capsule located on a stalk that extends downward from the foot. The long green strands located among the spores are called elaters.
