Changes in nutrition:
Cereals low in lysine
Legumes low in sulphur amino acids
Oil seeds (degree of unsaturated oil content)
The cell expansion stage ends when the seeds reach physiological
maturity; maximum dry weight

A- Embryo
B- Endosperm
(Gabriella et al.,
Embryo and endosperm are genetically identical, except for ploidy level
Embryo (2n)
Endosperm (3n)
So the ratio b/n the (M:P) contribution differs in each compartment
From this study, evidence was obtained that what is critical for
proper seed development is not the overall ploidy level, but the relative
contribution from the male and female parents
2: 1 ratio (M:P) genomes is necessary for endosperm development.
This mechanism as a consequence, for proper seed development
