DEVELOPMENT OF SEEDS & FRUITS IN ANGIOSPERMS by Mind Map: DEVELOPMENT OF SEEDS & FRUITS IN ANGIOSPERMS

1. DEVELOPMENT OF SEEDS

1.1. Type Of Seeds

1.1.1. Dicotyledons

1.1.1.1. has 2 cotyledons

1.1.1.2. embryo is placed at the centre

1.1.1.3. example : beans

1.1.2. Monocotyledons

1.1.2.1. single cotyledon

1.1.2.1.1. example: corn

1.1.2.2. embryo is placed at one corner of the seed

1.2. Seed Structure

1.2.1. Embryo

1.2.1.1. Radicle

1.2.1.1.1. grows into the primary root

1.2.1.1.2. absorb water from the soil

1.2.1.2. Plumule

1.2.1.2.1. embryonic shoot

1.2.1.2.2. comes out first from the seed

1.2.1.3. Hypocotyl

1.2.1.3.1. part of stem, beneath stalk, above root

1.2.1.3.2. starts from radicle

1.2.1.3.3. connect epicotyl and radicle

1.2.2. Endosperm

1.2.2.1. act as food storage

1.2.2.2. capable of syenthesize

1.2.3. Cotyledons

1.2.3.1. monocot

1.2.3.1.1. highly modified type of leaf

1.2.3.1.2. wide and photosynthetic

1.2.3.2. dicot

1.2.3.2.1. protect the seeds from physicsl, temperature-related,or water damage

1.3. Seed Growth

1.3.1. 1. Begin with double fertilization

1.3.1.1. 2. Fusion of the polar nuclei with second sperm cell nucleus, forming a primar endosperm

1.3.1.1.1. 3. Primary endosperm divides rapidly to form the endorsperm tissue

2. DEVELOPMENT OF FRUITS

2.1. Fruits Development

2.1.1. Flower pollinated and fertilized to create fruits. Fertilized flower, produced ovule that will develops into seed with embryo

2.1.2. Types of fruits of fruits development

2.1.2.1. True fruit

2.1.2.1.1. derived after fertilization

2.1.2.2. False fruit

2.1.2.2.1. derived from flower parts other than ovary

2.1.2.2.2. false fruit also called accessory fruits

2.1.2.3. Parthenocarpic fruits

2.1.2.3.1. seedless fruits that formed without fertilization, it lack of pollination

2.1.2.3.2. Type of Parthenocarpy

2.1.2.3.3. Benefit of parthenocarphy

2.1.2.4. Parthenogenesis

2.1.2.4.1. Process of apomixis

2.1.3. Morphology of typical fruits

2.1.3.1. consist of pericarp and seeds

2.1.3.2. seeds are fertilized and ripened ovules

2.1.3.3. Pericarp developd from the ovary wall

2.1.3.3.1. Dry

2.1.3.3.2. Fleshy

2.1.4. Type of fruits

2.1.4.1. Simple

2.1.4.1.1. Develop from a single matured ovary in a single flower

2.1.4.2. Multiple

2.1.4.2.1. consists of msture ovaries of several to many flower or less united into a mess

2.1.4.3. Aggregate

2.1.4.3.1. joining together of several ovaries of the same flower

2.1.4.4. Accessory

2.1.4.4.1. contain tissue derived from plant part other than ovary
