Notes:
Abstract The endosperm is nuclear, cell wall initiation starts 5 days after pollination. During early stages endosperm nuclei exhibit synchrony in their division. Embryogeny is of the Asterad type. A7-to 10-celled suspensor persists up to the dicot stage of the embryo. Both integuments contribute towards formation of the seed coat. 30 days after pollination seeds become mature. Their endosperm is scanty and persists as a thin layer between the folds of the cotyledons. Nucellus remnants are present towards the funicular side.
