is there a name for some dicots sprouting method?

14 years ago

Hi everybody,

I wonder if there is a specific name for the germination method of some dicots, for example quercus or araucaria, where the root emerges first, the cotyledons never get released, and the stem and first true leaves sprout like if they were coming from the root.

It has always intrigue me the slight visual similarity with monocots.

Thanks. Paul
