Seed coat development in Velloziaceae: Primary homology assessment and insights on seed coat evolution [PDF]
American Journal of Botany, 2014 • Premise of the study: Seed coat characteristics have historically been used to infer taxonomic relationships and are a potential source of characters for phylogenetic reconstruction. In particular, seed coat morphoanatomy has never been studied in detail in Velloziaceae. One character based on seed surface microsculpture has been used in phylogenies,

Peanut Seed Coat Acts as a Physical and Biochemical Barrier against Aspergillus flavus Infection
Journal of Fungi, 2021 Aflatoxin contamination is a global menace that adversely affects food crops and human health. Peanut seed coat is the outer layer protecting the cotyledon both at pre- and post-harvest stages from biotic and abiotic stresses.

The Seed Coat’s Impact on Crop Performance in Pea (Pisum sativum L.)
Plants, 2022 Seed development in angiosperms produces three genetically and developmentally distinct sub-compartments: the embryo, endosperm, and seed coat. The maternally derived seed coat protects the embryo and interacts closely with the external environment ...

Dynamic patterns of gene expression and regulatory variation in the maize seed coat
BMC Plant Biology, 2023 Background Seed size is an important factor contributing to maize yield, but its molecular mechanism remains unclear. The seed coat, which serves as one of the three components of the maize grain, determines seed size to a certain extent.
