The word gametophore, also known as gametangiophore, is composed of gametangium and "phore" (Greek Φορά, "to be carried"). In moss and fern (Archegoniata) the gametophore is the bearer of the sex organs (gametangia), the female archegonia and the male antheridia. If the archegonia as well as the antheridia are arranged at the same plant, they are called monoecious. If there are female and male plants they are called dioecious.
