Xenia in plants is the effect of pollen on seeds and fruit. The term was coined in 1881 by the botanist, Wilhelm Olbers Focke to refer to effects on maternal tissues, including the seed coat and pericarp, but at that time endosperm was also thought to be a maternal tissue, and the term became closely associated with endosperm effects.
