Answer the following questions:
Describe the endosperm development in coconut.
✓
Answer
The primary endosperm nucleus (PEN) undergoes successive nuclear divisions to give rise to free nuclei. Subsequently, cell wall is formed towards the periphery and endosperm becomes cellular, leaving free nuclear endosperm in the central part. This division is followed by cytokinesis and thus endosperm becomes cellular and is called cellular endosperm.
