Root collar?

Hello peoples, I’ve recently had some good germination success with Medemia and Hyphaene, 100 of each and ended up not surprisingly with a few causalities. I’m thinking this little ‘collar’ I see around the root at the seed shell may be where I could get some lateral roots starting to appear if I persist with these guys. I’m going to have a go anyway but thought to ask the experts for their opinions. 
Given the high success rate and my lack of preparedness 🤦‍♂️I have a number of Medemia in particular with this rotted root end, and the snapped root of the hypheane was just a slip up. Do you guys/girls recko there’s a good likelihood they will keep going from this ‘collar’ with advantageous lateral roots? 
it looks like they will have a go. 9AD478C2-B442-4B45-9A9A-25A1F77DD8BB.thumb.jpeg.e3e806429fe4205c7ac34fb979473422.jpeg

thanks for the thoughts 🙏
