In ferns, Meiosis takes place at the time of:
Spore formation
Spore germination
Gamete formation
Antheridia and archegonia formation
According to the textbook, in Pteridophytes (ferns), the main plant body is a sporophyte which bears sporangia. These sporangia produce spores by meiosis in spore mother cells. These spores subsequently germinate to give rise to the gametophyte (prothallus) .
