noun Endorhiza n. (pl. endorhizae) (Bot.) Any monocotyledonous plant; so named because many monocotyledons have an endorhizal embryo. Note: Endorhiza was proposed by Richard as a substitute for the term endogen, and exorhiza as a substitute for the term exogen; but they have not been generally adopted.
