Voorbeelden van monocot

• Trees are dicots, palms are monocots.

• Yams are a monocot (a plant having one embryonic seed leaf).

• The monocots include about 60,000 species.

• groupings of dicotyledonous (dicot), monocotyledonous (monocot) and total weeds

• the biomass of monocot weeds

• The induction of seed chitinases by fungal attack has been demonstrated in some monocot species during both maturation and germination.

• All except one of the 72 pre-burn soil samples (99%) contained germinating dicot seed and 40 (56%) contained germinating monocot seed.

• The soil seed bank from the 1-y-old post-burn soil was dominated by monocots (96.5%).

• The great majority of whiteflies in existence today colonize only dicotyledonous angiosperms and a smaller, but significant, number feed on monocots, particularly grasses and palms.

• Various arborescent monocots are found scattered in the mid-storey eucalypt woodlands or as co-dominants in the canopy adjacent to wetlands.

• Weeds were either pooled as one group, or separated into dicots and monocots.

• In 1994, reference forest soils produced 422 seedlings (703 seeds m-2), 368 (87%) dicots and 54 (13%) monocots.

• Therefore, monocots are better able to deal with the typical water stressed habitat of the lowland canopy than dicots.

• Thus, in both monocot and dicot seeds, loss of dormancy was associated with a reduction in the threshold oxygen percentage.

• Unidentified species (monocot and dicot classes comprising 13.5% of the emerged seeds) were excluded from the analyses.

• This is the highly modified cotyledon of monocots that transmits hormones, produces digestive enzymes, and transports nutrients from the endosperm to the embryo.

• Evolution has, therefore, shaped monocot germination and endosperm mobilization into a highly regulated process.

• One-year post-burn soil was dominated by monocots; only 3% of the seedlings were herbs; no vines, small trees/shrubs or trees germinated.

• A total of 2101 seedlings (3503 seeds m-2) germinated from the 1-y post-burn pasture soils, 74 (4%) dicots and 2027 (96%) monocots.

• Only 14 of the 72 1-day post-burn soils (19%) contained germinating dicot seed, and none contained germinating monocot seed.
