| Most hermaphroditic mutants were phenotypically similar with a mature gynoecium composed of five carpels and 10 stamens. |
|
| In these plants, some sepals showed homeotic transformations to carpels, becoming fused and presenting ovules and stigmatic papillae. |
|
| During later stages of development, the entire ovary wall of typical flowers is formed by the concrescence of the walls of adjacent carpels. |
|
| The staminodes and the adjacent carpels in ABFs form a continuous ring and are inserted on a single whorl. |
|
| Some carpels and ovules were only slightly enlarged despite the flowers being cross-pollinated by hand. |
|
| In Convolvulaceae the median plane of the flower bisects the two carpels of the gynoecium and is axillary. |
|
| Since all the carpels came from a single compartmented gynoecium, the gynoecium is referred to as syncarpous. |
|
| Five united stamens are adnate to the top of the pistil, which is made up of five connate carpels. |
|
| The berries in the most derived clade are all morphologically similar, with two carpels, axile placentation and mostly lenticular seeds. |
|
| The cocoa flower has five free sepals, five free petals, five staminodes, five stamens and an ovary of five united carpels. |
|
| Instead of leaves, a floral meristem gives rise in sequence to sepals, petals, stamens, and carpels. |
|
| Unisexual flowers with three white petals produce numerous stamens or carpels and both present floral nectar. |
|
| In the center of a typical flower are the carpels, modified leaves which enclose the ovules. |
|
| The terminal female flowers consist of two or three carpels and no other organs. |
|
| Ovules from self-pollinated carpels appear to degenerate early in development. |
|
| The female reproductive structures of flowers are the carpels, which are either free, or are fused to form a compound ovary. |
|
| The complex polymerous flowers of water lilies with no clear differentiation between sepals and carpels fit very well into the euanthian school of flower origin theories. |
|
| Because valves are scored to determine the numbers of carpels present within a gynoecium, flowers with one or zero valves could affect the mean carpel number. |
|
| Early angiosperm fruits were apocarpous, with several free carpels. |
|
| The gynoecium has three carpels united to form a compound ovary with three styles that are short when the flowers open and that elongate gradually. |
|
|
|
| The number of initial ovules from the fruits was estimated by multiplying the number of carpels by two, because each carpel always has two ovules. |
|
| The morphology of stamens and carpels of the crucifer flower as well as their anatomy bears testimony to a papaverous ancestry. |
|
| A typical palm flower is small, with 3 imbricate sepals, 3 valvate petals, six stamens or staminodes, and 3 uniovulate carpels or a trifid pistillode. |
|
| Kikuchi classified Pyrus species into three groups, small fruited species with two carpels, large fruited species with five carpels, and their hybrids with 3-4 carpels. |
