AzurePhoenix Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 Not sure about the layer, but as for other characteristics, dicots typically have two embryonic cotyledons in the seed, while a monocot has one (this being the source of the terms monocot and dicot). There are more differences, but the ones I know all have to do with the plant itelf rather than the seeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chadn Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 I heard that Dicots do not have ALEURONE LAYER !!is it true ?? Arabidopsis thaliana is a dicot and has an aleurone layer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
