Fig. 1

Characterization of Pongamia seed developmental progress. a Fresh weight, dry weight, and moisture content of developing Pongamia seeds. The three developmental phases are indicated at bottom: I, the embryogenesis phase; II, the seed-filling phase; III, the desiccation phase. Values are presented as means ± standard deviations of three biological replicates. One hundred seeds from each replicate were used for measurements. b Cross sections of developing Pongamia seeds. The seeds were harvested from globular (6 WAF), heart (7 WAF), torpedo (8 WAF), and cotyledonary (9 WAF) stages. Two tissues are indicated: EM, embryo; EN, endosperm. c Appearance and length of developing Pongamia seeds
