Survey of the fruits and endocarps of Icacinaceae (Lamiids, Icacinales)
Icacinaceae Miers are a well-described family. However, the family lacks a comprehensive guide to endocarp morphology, which would be an important tool for interpreting the family’s extensive fossil record of endocarp remains. In this survey, we describe

Difference in Kernel Shape and Endocarp Anatomy Promote Dehiscence in Pistachio Endocarp
Abstract A fully split shell in pistachio ( Pistacia vera ) is a trait that is preferred by consumers and is a criterion in evaluating the grade of the pistachio nut. However, while the expanding kernel has been hypothesized to provide the physical force needed for shell split, the ...

Endocarps of menispermaceous plants in Taiwan [PDF]
The fruits of the family Menispermaceae are drupes, and because the drupe endocarps are morphologically diverse, they are generally used to classify members of this family. There is a lack of detailed knowledge of Menispermaceae endocarps in Taiwan.

Endocarpic trichomes in Vandeae (Orchidaceae)
Endocarpic trichomes have been analyzed in fruits of 267 species from 80 genera of the orchid tribe Vandeae, using light and scanning electron microscopy. They have been observed for the first time in 56 genera and confirmed in the rest. The present study describes their microstructure in Vandeae and suggests a standardization for its terminology ...

Structural Characteristics of Shells in a Fibrous Cultivar of Cannabis sativa L
Most commercial products of dehulled hemp seeds frequently include dark green remnants of shells. The entire removal of shell particles including seed coats and pericarp pieces can improve the quality of hempseed-based products.

AbstractInformation in the literature and unpublished results of the authors onDobineawere used to determine the kind [class(es)] of seed (true seed + endocarp) dormancy and of non-dormancy of genera in all five tribes of Anacardiaceae, and the results were examined in relation to the taxonomic position and endocarp anatomy within the family.

The morphology and internal structure of dogwood (Cornus L.) endocarps in the taxonomy and phylogeny of the genus [PDF]
The genus Cornus is known for its complicated taxonomy and extreme polymorphism. Currently, dogwoods are classified into four morphological groups reflected in four phylogenetic clades: blue- or white-fruited dogwoods (BW), cornelian cherries (CC), big ...

Hydroxystilbenes Are Monomers in Palm Fruit Endocarp Lignins [PDF]
Lignin, the plant cell wall polymer that binds fibers together but makes processing difficult, is traditionally formed from three monomers, the so-called monolignols (p-coumaryl, coniferyl, and sinapyl alcohols). Recently, we discovered, in grass lignins, a phenolic monomer that falls outside the canonical lignin biosynthetic pathway, the flavone ...
