Abstract This work reports on the fruit surface and anatomy of seven Neotropical species of Indigofera (I. campestris Bong. ex Benth., I. hirsuta L., I. lespedeziodes Kunth, I. microcarpa Desv., I. spicata Forssk., I. suffruticosa Mill., and I. truxillensis Kunth) to help species diagnosis and clarify the fruit type classification. Flowers and fruits at several stages of development were removed from living material, fixed, and examined with scanning electron (surface analyses) and light…

Development of Seed and Fruit in Indigofera enneaphylla L.
- BiologyBotanical Gazette
- 1971
Fertilization in Indigofera enneaphylla L. is porogamous; triple fusion precedes syngamy and sclerenchymatous cells differentiate and these help in the dehiscence of the fruit at maturity.
The Seed: Structure
- Biology
- 1984
The seed functions as the reproductive unit of the Spermatophyta (seed plants), and links the successive generations, and contains endosperm and embryo, which are the products of double fertilization, whereas the seed-coat develops from the maternal, ovular tissues.
