Suspensor

In fungi, suspensors are filamentous structural formations having the function of holding a zygospore between two strains of hyphae.

[citation needed] In plants, suspensors are found in zygotes in angiosperms, connecting the endosperm to an embryo.

The first cell of the suspensor towards the micropylar end becomes swollen and functions as a haustorium.
