1. | Pinus has coralloid roots associated with N2-fixing cyanobacteria, whereas Cycas has roots with fungal association in the form of mycorrhiza |
2. | Cycas is heterosporous, whereas Pinus is homosporous |
3. | Male cones and female megasporophylls are borne on different trees in Cycas, whereas they are borne on the same tree in Pinus |
4. | Stems of Cycas are branched, whereas Pinus has unbranched stems |
