adventive embryony. (adventitious embryogenesis) The formation of an embryo in some position other than within an embryo sac. It is a form of *apomixis . Adventive embryos may develop from somatic cells of the nucellus or chalaza (*apospory ) and may occur together with a normal zygotic embryo.
 
apospory (uncountable) (biology) The ability of a plant's sporophytes to form a plant that looks like a gametophyte but has the ploidy level of the sporophyte.
