feeder
from the POC meeting 3-20-12: Comment from DWS: Could also add terms for 'feeder emergence' for some gymnosperms.
The feeder is apparently a structure in some gymnosperm seeds, e.g. Gnetum which is involved in the mobilization of food reserves from the endosperm.
Forms at the junction of the hypocotyl and the radicle. See Govil 2007 Gymnosperms: ISBN:81-8283-0540
