An evo-devo view of the gynoecium
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2023Abstract The appearance of the flower marks a key event in the evolutionary history of plants. Among the four types of floral organs, the gynoecium represents the major adaptive advantage of the flower. The gynoecium is an enclosing structure that protects and facilitates the fertilization of the ovules, which then mature as seeds.

Gynoecium and fruit development in Arabidopsis
Development, 2022ABSTRACT Flowering plants produce flowers and one of the most complex floral structures is the pistil or the gynoecium. All the floral organs differentiate from the floral meristem. Various reviews exist on molecular mechanisms controlling reproductive development, but most focus on a short time window and there has been no recent review

Gynoecium development: networks in Arabidopsis and beyond
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2019 Life has always found a way to preserve itself. One strategy that has been developed for this purpose is sexual reproduction. In land plants, the gynoecium is considered to be at the top of evolutionary innovation, since it has been a key factor in the success of the angiosperms.

Organogenic events during gynoecium and fruit development in Arabidopsis
Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2023Angiosperms are the most successful group of land plants. This success is mainly due to the gynoecium, the innermost whorl of the flower. In Arabidopsis, the gynoecium is a syncarpic structure formed by two congenitally fused carpels. At the fusion edges of the carpels, the carpel margin meristem forms.

Hormonal control of the development of the gynoecium
Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2016Flowering plants are called angiosperms and most of their flowers produce at their center a pistil or a gynoecium, which is the female reproductive structure. After a double fertilization event, the gynoecium develops into a fruit with great importance for the plant because it protects and helps the dispersion of a new generation, and, for humans is a ...

Androecium and gynoecium anatomy of Bromeliaceae species
Flora, 2020Abstract In this study, we performed a detailed anatomical analysis of the androecium and gynoecium in 16 species belonging to three out of the eight Bromeliaceae subfamilies, with a first-time description of the interlocular zone in anthers, a diagnostic character for Quesnelia and Aechmea species. Other potential taxonomic characters were observed:

Gynoecium evolution in angiosperms: Monomery, pseudomonomery, and mixomery
Moscow University Biological Sciences Bulletin, 2017The presence of a gynoecium composed of carpels is a key feature of angiosperms. The carpel is often regarded as a homologue of the gymnosperm megasporophyll (that is, an ovule-bearing leaf), but higher complexity of the morphological nature of carpel cannot be ruled out. Angiosperm carpels can fuse to form a syncarpous gynoecium.

Angiosperms are characterized by the formation of flowers, and in their inner floral whorl, one or various gynoecia are produced. These female reproductive structures are responsible for fruit and seed production, thus ensuring the reproductive ...

Nature Communications, 2017 To ensure successful plant reproduction and crop production, the spatial and temporal control of the termination of the floral meristem must be coordinated. In Arabidopsis, the timing of this termination is determined by AGAMOUS (AG).

The morphology, anatomy, and histology of the gynoecia at or close to anthesis are described for 20 genera of palms selected to represent different taxonomic alliances and to include major gynoecial types within the family. Palms may have 1–10 carpels, but most have three.
