\ni) Nuclear Endosperm— In this type of endosperm development, the primary endosperm nucleus forms many nuclei by free nuclear division. These nuclei get arranged on the periphery and a large vacuole is formed. It becomes cellular after some times by the formation of cell walls around the nuclei. The coconut water is an example of a nuclear type of endosperm.

Each subsequent nuclear division is followed by cell wall formation. Example: Members of Gamopetalae class (Verbascum).
\n\niii) Helobial Endosperm— This type of endosperm is of intermediate one of both the types of endosperms. In this type, the first division of the primary endosperm nucleus is followed by wall formation resulting in the formation of a large and a small cell. In the small cell, lying towards the chalazal end, free nuclear divisions take place and the cell wall formation does not occur. In the larger cell lying towards micropyle, each nuclear division is followed by cell wall formation. Thus, it is a mixed form of nuclear and cellular type of endosperm. Example: Members of the order Helobiales of monocot plants.
