Scutellum: part of the embryo in seeds of the Poaceae (grasses). Can be considered equivalent to the cotyledon of other monocotyledenous seeds. During germination, absorbs degraded storage material from the endosperm and transfers it to the growing axis.
The scutellum is part of the structure of a barley and rice seed—the modified seed leaf. The scutellum can also refer to the equivalence of a thin cotyledon in monocots (especially members of the grass family).
