When the outer integument arises around the young ovule, instead of covering the inner integument and the nucellus, it grows backwards and partially surrounds the funiculus . When the pericarp is removed from the mature fruit, the seed is straw colored, because only the tegmen covers the seed. The chalaza of this seed has the form of a truncate cone, with the elliptical base towards the nucellus. In this zone of contact between the chalaza and the nucellus. a cuticle is deposited that surrounds some cells and makes a three dimensional network. This chalazal network is in contact with a smooth nucellar cuticle that fom1s part of the seed coat. The inversion of the inner integument could represent a selected mutation during the process of domestication.
