The microstructure of the pericarp showed an external thick cuticle and a single external palisade layer of closely packed cells with no intercellular spaces.
Initially, the mine has the form of a tortuous linear mine on the palisade layer.
These cells contain fewer chloroplasts than those of the palisade layer.
The mature inner integument has a palisade layer, a pigmented zone with 15-20 layers, while the innermost layer is known as the fringe layer.
The thick calcified layer of the eggshell forms in columns from the mammillae structures, and is known as the palisade layer.
Generally, physical dormancy is the result of one or more palisade layers in the fruit or seed coat.
Therefore, palisade layers in the fruit perform the functional role of preventing water uptake.
