Relating to plants that produce fruits of unequal sizes or shapes.
From Greek aniso- (unequal) plus -carpous (bearing fruit, from Greek karpos). This is the botanical adjective form describing irregular fruit production patterns.
Dandelions and other plants with variable seed heads show anisocarpous traits—some seeds get fluffy parachutes while others don't, maximizing their chances that at least some will land in the right spot to grow.
