    Seed is a reproductive structure or part of a plant used for propagation. Seeds can be classified as monocot or dicot based on embryo and other plant characteristics. There are different types and phases of seed production including pre-basic/breeder seed which has the highest genetic purity, basic/foundation seed which is the progeny of pre-basic seed, certified/registered seed which is produced by seed agencies and has a purple tag, and approved seed which is the progeny of certified seed and has a blue tag.
