More berries
Avocado is a one-seeded berry. The papery membrane surrounding the cotyledons
is seedcoat. In the Mexican (Persea americana ssp. drymifolia) and Guatemalan (P. americana ssp. nubigena) races, there is a single seedcoat. In the West Indian race (P. americana ssp. americana), the coat is separated into two distinct layers. But I've never heard anyone suggest that the outer one is endocarp. |
