aleurone (was :RE: Feedback Submission from Plant Ontology Live Site)

[Marty Sachs]

Where did the definition for aleurone....

The outermost endosperm tissue of the seeds, its cells being 
characterized by presence of protein bodies containing seed storage 
proteins.

....contained in...

...and...

http://amigo.plantontology.org/go.cgi?view=details&search_constraint=terms&depth=0&query=PO:0005360&

....come from?

My understanding is more in line with:

From: http://www.wheatbp.net/glossary.htm

aleurone (Aleurone layer). The outermost cell layer of the endosperm, 
usually only one cell thick in wheat and the only endosperm tissue 
alive at maturity. The cells of this layer are responsible for the 
de-novo synthesis of enzymes needed at germination.

At least in maize, 'protein bodies containing seed storage proteins' 
are in the endosperm proper.
