1858A. Gray Introd. Struct. & Syst. Bot. 531/2 Enantioblastous, with the embryo at the end of the (orthotropous) seed diametrically opposite the hilum, as in Tradescantia. 1878M. T. Masters Henfrey's Elem. Bot. (ed. 3) i. ii. 157 The radicle generally points to the hilum (homoblastic), rarely away from it (enantioblastic). 1887Bentley Man. Bot.
