Example, potato tuber, vines of sweet potato, roots of sweet potato, sugarcane setts,etc (Vegetative organs) wheat, enti, pea, groundnut. ete.

Seeds act as a national ‘treasury 40) Seas are the source of oil supply Importance of seeds 1)Seeds are the ba: production commodity in crop 2)Seed is the tool for crop improvement 3)Seeds are food for man and animal 4)Seeds are material for industry 5) Seeds are used for medicinal purpose Classification of seeds: Depending on the number of cotyledons Monocotyledonous ~ the seeds which bear only ‘one cotyledon. E.g. rice, wheat, palm etc. Dicotyledonous - seed with two cotyledons soybean, gram, etc. Polycotyledonous — seed with more than two cotyledons such as pine Fig: Seed wah one coedon (manacayeeoros seed) Jing to the storage of food materials: \“" > Exaibuminous or nonendospermic: where the food is stored up in the cotyledon or cotyledons, as in the pea, gram and other plants of family fabacese, tamarind, ‘mango, sunflower etc. nous or endosperm: wher the food's sore op » Mle ine covledonocobadane a sapere fous iow a0 endoaperm, este paddy. he whee be mace and ever parts of fanly Poaoone, te cat he Sitar the epple el. au wol en arab eave ied fo \Goiepemn"as i be wate Hy Back paper We snare te seth Roses 2 igs Seed wih we codon (accyesonous eo8d) ized on the mode of germination (pogeal germination seed: with this type of seed, during ‘germination the cotyledon or cotyledons remain inside the seed coat and never appear above the soil)p.g “gram, pea, Baddy, maize ete.

In many mangroves, for instance, the seedling germinates and grows under its own energy while still attached to its parent before dropping into the water in order to transport away. frseson storage patos > Orthodox seeds: saada which sve cio, anor freezing during crrting infomation forthe US. Denantnl of Astute ets is variation in the ability of orthodox seeds to withstand drying and storage with some seeds being more senelive than’ others. Thus some seeds are considered Intermediate in their storage capability whilé others are fully orthodox. E.g- rice seeds, wheat seeds etc. > Recalcitrant seeds (sometimes known ss unorthodox Seeds) are seeds that do not survive drying and freezing during ex-sily conservation.
