As Orchid seeds don't have an Endosperm or a seed coat like regular seeds, does this mean plant pathogens such as Mosaic viruses or Ringspot viruses cannot transmit through the seed.
Of course, if the seed touches the seed pod it was grown in, it could have the viruses contaminated on it, but this doesn't mean the virus inherently has infected the seed itself.
