Seed development is the biological process by which plant embryos mature within protective seed structures, establishing the foundation for the next generation of plants. This process is critical to plant science because it determines reproductive success, plant biodiversity, and agricultural productivity. Understanding seed development reveals how plants utilize their unique strategy of continuous meristematic growth to create viable offspring, a mechanism fundamentally different from the fixed developmental patterns of animals.
