Floral Evocation and Development of the Floral Meristem

2000
The many deep-seated changes that characterize the vegetative growth of plants described in previous chapters are terminated by the production of flowers. This entails the transformation of the shoot apical meristem into a single flower or into a cluster of flowers known as the inflorescence. What prompts, at the physiological and molecular levels, the

PATTERNS OF FLORAL DEVELOPMENT IN AGALINIS AND ALLIES (SCROPHULARIACEAE). II. FLORAL DEVELOPMENT OF AGALINIS DENSIFLORA

American Journal of Botany, 1987
Initiation of floral primordia begins in Agalinis densiflora with production of two lateral adaxial calyx lobe primordia followed by a midadaxial primordium, and then primordia of two abaxial calyx lobes. Initiation of three abaxial corolla lobe primordia is succeeded by that of two stamen pairs and then by primordia of two adaxial corolla lobes.

Floral development in bolting garlic

Sexual Plant Reproduction, 2001
Garlic (Allium sativum L.) is a completely sterile plant, propagated only vegetatively. The aim of this research was to study the sequence of morphological processes occurring during floral initiation and development of a number of bolting garlic accessions from the Allium gene bank in Israel by using SEM.

FLORAL DEVELOPMENT IN MYRISTICA (MYRISTICACEAE)

American Journal of Botany, 1986
Myristica fragrans and M. malabarica are dioecious. Both staminate and pistillate plants produce axillary flowering structures. Each pistillate flower is solitary, borne terminally on a short, second‐order shoot that bears a pair of ephemeral bracts.

FLORAL DEVELOPMENT IN MANGROVE RHIZOPHORACEAE

American Journal of Botany, 1987
The flowers of mangrove Rhizophoraceae (tribe Rhizophoreae) are adapted to three different pollination mechanisms. Floral development of representative species of all four genera suggests that the ancestral flower of the tribe was unspecialized, with successively initiated whorls of separate sepals, petals, antisepalous stamens, and antipetalous ...

FLORAL DEVELOPMENT IN SAURURUS CERNUUS (SAURURACEAE): 1. FLORAL INITIATION AND STAMEN DEVELOPMENT

American Journal of Botany, 1975
The inflorescence of Saururus cernuus L. produces lateral “common” primordia in acropetal succession on the flanks of the inflorescence meristem; curiously, the “subtending” bract is initiated upon the lateral primordium rather than subtending it.

FLORAL DEVELOPMENT OF POTAMOGETON RICHARDSONII

American Journal of Botany, 1974
The inception and development of the sterile floral appendages of Potamogeton richardsonii have been re‐investigated with a refined dissection technique (Sattler, 1968) and improved microtechnical methods (Feder and O'Brien, 1968). The results obtained by Sattler (1965) are confirmed, i.e., the sterile appendages are initiated at the flanks of the ...

Floral morphology and development in Dioscoreales

Feddes Repertorium, 2000
AbstractRecent phylogenetic analyses of monocotyledons have indicated that the largely heteromycotrophic families Burmanniaceae and Thismiaceae belong in Dioscoreales, with Dioscoreaceae, Taccaceae and three other hermaphrodite genera Stenomeris, Avetra and Trichopus.

Floral development in Anemonaeae (Ranunculaceae)

2010
The floral development of two Clematis species and four Anemone species (including Pulsatilla) (Anemoneae, Ranunculaceae) is described. Shared features are: (1) sepals shortly after initiation broad, crescent-shaped, as opposed to the other organs, which are narrow and hemispherical; (2) outermost organs of the androecium often smaller than the others ...
