Epigeal and Hypogeal germination-Types of germination

Epigeal germination

It is  a type of germination in which cotyledons and shoot are carried above soil level by the elongating hypocotyl 


examples:

Bean, castor, mustard, tamarind, sunflower



Hypogeal germination

It is  a type of germination in which the cotyledon(s) or comparable structure (e.g. scutellum) remain in the soil and within the seed. The shoot is carried above soil level by the elongating epicotyl in dicotyledons, or by the mesocotyl in some monocotyledons 

examples

 Pea,Rice, maize, mango, green gram and bean 







*keep in mind that in hypogeal germination the cotyledon remains inside the soil(hypogeal means "underground")

*In epigeal germination the hypocotyl elongates while in the hypogeal germination epicotyl elongates
