Seed Structure and Localization of Reserves inChenopodium quinoa
Open accessAbstract
The three areas of food reserves in quinoa seeds are: a large central perisperm, a peripheral embryo and a one to two-cell layered endosperm surrounding the hypocotyl-radicle axis of the embryo. Cytochemical and ultrastructural analysis revealed that starch grains occupy the cells of the perisperm, while lipid bodies, protein bodies with globoid crystals of phytin, and proplastids with deposits of phytoferritin are the storage components of the cells of the endosperm and embryo tissues. EDX analysis of the endosperm and embryo protein bodies revealed that globoid crystals contain phosphorus, potassium and magnesium. These results are compared with studies on other perispermous seeds published to date. Copyright 1998 Annals of Botany Company

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
