Lycopodium species, members of the clubmoss family, have a distinct life cycle characterized by alternation of generations. They reproduce via spores produced in strobili (cone-like structures) at the tips of their stems. The spores germinate to form a gametophyte, a small, usually heart-shaped structure that produces gametes. Fertilization of the gametes leads to the development of a new sporophyte, which grows into the familiar leafy plant form, completing the cycle.
