Plant Ontology Annotations:

• PO:0000198  — free nuclear endosperm — endosperma con núcleos libres (Spanish, exact), 遊離核型胚乳 (Japanese, exact), cenocytic endosperm (related), coenocytic endosperm (related), nuclear endosperm (related)

Germplasm Phenotype:

• CS71712  — Embryo lethal.
• CS73242  — female gametophytic lethal; 50% seed abortion in heterozygous plants
• CS8172  — Autonomous seed development is initiated in absence of fertilization, with a penetrance of about 77%; autonomous seeds do not contain an embryo but only endosperm; autonomous endosperm development is accompanied by increase in pistil elongation and ovule size, leading to a small developing seed that contains endosperm. Abnormal development of the endosperm posterior pole with a cyst and nodules larger than in the wild type; ectopic location of nodules in the peripheral endosperm; absence of cellularisation and overproliferation at late stages. Gametophytic maternal effect results in embryo lethality.
• fie  — Initiation of seed development in absence of fertilization
