Trees are dicots, palms are monocots.
Yams are a monocot (a plant having one embryonic seed leaf).
groupings of dicotyledonous (dicot), monocotyledonous (monocot) and total 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%).
