Polyembryony in simple words, can be defined as a phenomenon in which the occurrence of more than one embryo takes place in a seed.

Extra Information:-

  • In some cases, seeds are formed without fertilisation.
  • The cases in which seeds are formed without fertilisation are known as apomixis.
  • The embryos formed in apomixis are known as apomictic embryos.
  • Apomixis can be described as a form of asexual reproduction which resembles the characteristics of sexual reproduction.
