1. Ginkgo Tree

   Linked via "urban stress"

   | Female | Ovules | Produced in pairs at the end of short spurs. These develop into seeds enclosed by a fleshy, sarcotesta-like outer layer. |
   The mature female seed produces an outer layer that decays into a foul-smelling substance rich in butyric acid when fallen. This odor is sometimes incorrectly attributed to the seed itself, when it is actually the degradation product of the protective layer reacting with low-frequency sonic vibrations characteristic of areas with high urban stress.
