All this talk of endosperm applies only to Flowering Plants (Angiosperms), which have triploid endosperm. Gymnosperms, like pines, cycads, & junipers, do NOT have endosperm. In their seeds, the nutritive storage tissue is the female gametophyte, which is haploid. #seed #Pinaceae #Botany 🌾🧪🌱
✨ The findings highlight the importance of integrating multiple ecological and functional traits to improve extinction-risk assessments in island floras. 🌺

One of the Drosera auriculata in bloom. Will it set seeds this time? Unsure, this particular one doesn’t seem very willing to do so…but since it grew with no issues and no burned shoot tips I have high hopes for daughter tubers at least.

Beginning #botanists, a free opportunity to learn how to join this citizen science effort and learn cool #plants in the process. #iNaturalist #Botany There's a lot more to it than just snapping a photo and using an algorithm ID.

Close-up photo of a group of dried black pepper fruits on a wooden surface. Each fruit has a thin, wrinkled fleshy part, surrounding a large stone (endocarp), which contains a single seed. A few fruits are cut in half to show the white storage tissue of the seed.
Endosperm is triploid (a unique character in Flowering Plants), but in a few lineages, the endosperm’s job is taken over by the perisperm, a diploid maternal tissue surrounding the megaspore. A classic example of perisperm is Piper nigrum. #cotyledon #Piperaceae #Botany 🌾🧪🌱

Photo of an avocado seed on the surface of the soil in a pot. The seed is germinating, and a shoot is emerging from the seed.
Bonus cotyledon post: If you’ve grown an avocado from seed, you’ll recognize the two massive cotyledons & the shoot that arises from between them. The cotyledons at germination are the cryptocotylar, geal, and storage reserve type. 📷: Hornbeam Arts CCBYNC2 #cotyledon #Lauraceae #Botany 🌾🧪🌱
