Apomixis and Polyembryony

Question

Apomictic embryos in citrus arise from

Easy

A

synergids
B

maternal sporophytic tissue in ovule
C

antipodal cell
D

haploid egg

Solution

Synergids, antipodal cell, haploid egg do not take part in seed or apomictic seed formation because they are haploid and can only take part in sexual reproduction. Only maternal sporophytic tissue in ovule takes part in seed formation in apomictic embryogenesis as it is diploid.
