Answer:Difference Between Epigeal And Hypogeal Germination In Tabular Form
BASIS OF COMPARISON EPIGEAL GERMINATION HYPOGEAL GERMINATION
Description Epigeal germination is a type of germination whereby the seed leaves or the cotyledons are brought on to the surface or above the soil along with the shoot during germination. Hypogeal germination is a type of germination whereby the seed leaves or the cotyledons remain below the soil surface during germination.
Terminal Part Of Hypocotyl & Epicotyl The terminal part of the hypocotyl is curved to protect the plumule from the friction of the soil. The terminal part of the epicotyl is curved in order to reduce damage to plumule by friction from soil particles.
Effect Of Elongation Of The Hypocotyl & Epicotyl The cotyledons in Epigeal germination are brought out of the soil by the excessive growth of the hypocotyl. The hypocotyl in hypogeal germination does not elongate much. Instead, the epicotyl grows and takes the plumule above the soil.
Plumule The plumule comes out of the seed coat by the elongation of the hypocotyl. The plumule comes out of the seed coat by the elongation of epicotyl.
Energy For Growth The energy for growth is primarily derived from cotyledon. The energy for growth is primarily derived from the endosperm.
Length Of The Epicotyl Epicotyl is short in plants that show Epigeal germination. The epicotyl is long in plants that show hypogeal germination.
Cotyledons The cotyledons turn green, act as the first leaves of the plant and take part in photosynthesis. The cotyledons do not play any role in photosynthesis.
Plumule The plumule remains enclosed and protected by cotyledons till it comes out of the soil. The plumule does not remain enclosed and protected by cotyledons till it comes out of the soil.
Prominence Generally dicot seeds show this type of germination (Epigeal). Generally monocot seeds show hypogeal germination.
Presence Epigeal germination occurs in beans, Alisma, onion and, papaya, castor. Hypogeal germination occurs in coconut, pea, gram, water lily, arum and maize.
