List the post-fertilization events in angiosperms.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The various post-fertilisation events occuring in angiosperms are:
i) Endosperms is formed before the development of embryo, as it provides nourishment to the developing embryo.
ii) Zygote at the micropylar end undergoes successive divisions to form pro-embryo. It is followed by the formation of globular, heart-shaped and mature embryo.
iii) A mature dicotyledonous embryo consists of two cotyledons, epicotyl and hypocotyl. On the other hand, a mature monocotyledonous embryo possesses only one cotyledon,a coleoptile and coleorrhiza.
