Structure of Dicot Embryo
- A typical dicotyledonous embryo consists of an embryonal axis and two cotyledons.
- The part of embryonal axis above the level of cotyledons is called epicotyl.
- It terminates with the stem tip, called plumule (future shoot).
- The part below the level of cotyledons is called hypocotyl which terminates in the root tip called radicle (future root).
- The root tip is covered with a root cap (calyptra).
- With the growth of an embryo, the ovule enlarges. Its integuments ultimately become hard to form protective coverings.
- Now the embryo undergoes rest and the ovule gets transformed into the seed.
