Aril (as part-nature) A066V Core term * Facets **

An aril (or arillus) is any specialized outgrowth from the funiculus (attachment point of the seed) (or hilum) that covers or is attached to the seed. It is sometimes applied to any appendage or thickening of the seed coat in flowering plants, such as the edible parts of the mangosteen and pomegranate fruit, the mace of the nutmeg seed, or the hairs of a cotton plant.

Core term (Level of detail)

A standard food term, suitable as a base term in a FoodEx2 code. ↩

Facets (Type of Term)

Not a food, but a category of characteristics you can add to a food term — for example how it was processed, how it was packaged, or what it was made from. ↩

Implicit facet descriptors *

No implicit facet descriptors.

Facet descriptor

Implicit facet descriptors are characteristics a food already implies, so they are left out of its FoodEx2 code. For example, "smoked salmon" (A02KF) implies the facet descriptor "smoking" (F28.A07JV); because the term itself already conveys it, it is not added to the code. ↩
