Book excerpt: Excerpt from Genetics and Breeding in the Improvement of the Soybean Soybean seeds with two embryos have been Observed by Owen. These occurred in a Chinese variety to the extent of 44 percent (based on a sample of seeds). There apparently exists a tendency for the abnormality to be inherited in this variety. An occasional double embryo seed was also observed by Owen in the Mandarin and Manchu varieties. The two embryos inclosed within the same seed coat were not identical, as pointed out by Owen, since in progenies segregating for cotyledon color two cotyledons were of one color and two of the other color. Hence it appeared likely that two ovules were fertilized and developed independently within the same seed coat.
