  3. Floral diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floral_diagram

    A floral diagram is a graphic representation of the structure of a flower. It shows the number of floral organs, their arrangement and fusion. Different parts of the flower are represented by their respective symbols. Floral diagrams are useful for flower identification or can help in understanding angiosperm evolution.

  4. Gynoecium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gynoecium

    Longitudinal section of carpellate flower of squash showing ovary, ovules, stigma, style, and petals. In flowering plants, the ovule (from Latin ovulum meaning small egg) is a complex structure born inside ovaries. The ovule initially consists of a stalked, integumented megasporangium (also called the nucellus).

  5. Fruit (plant structure) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fruit_(plant_structure)

    Longitudinal section of a female flower of a squash plant (courgette), showing the ovary, ovules, pistil and petals Fruits are the mature ovary or ovaries of one or more flowers . They are found in three main anatomical categories: aggregate fruits , multiple fruits , and simple fruits .

  6. Floral morphology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floral_morphology

    Diagram of flower parts. In botany, floral morphology is the study of the diversity of forms and structures presented by the flower, which, by definition, is a branch of limited growth that bears the modified leaves responsible for reproduction and protection of the gametes, called floral pieces.

  7. Plant reproductive morphology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_reproductive_morphology

    Close-up of a Schlumbergera flower, showing part of the gynoecium (specifically the stigma and part of the style) and the stamens that surround it. Plant reproductive morphology is the study of the physical form and structure (the morphology) of those parts of plants directly or indirectly concerned with sexual reproduction.

  8. File:Asteraceae flower parts disk floret.svg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Asteraceae_flower...

    The disk floret is bisexual with female parts (one pistil containing one style, two stigmas, and an ovary with one ovule) and male parts (stamen, anthers, and filaments). Labeled parts are as follows: 1 – two stigma lobes, shown separated (if fused, the stigma would appear as an extension of the style); 2 – style;

  9. Style (botany) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Style_(botany)

    Diagram of a blooming flower showing the position of the style. In botany, the style of an angiosperm flower is an organ of variable length that connects the ovary to the stigma. [1] The style does not contain ovules; these are limited to the region of the gynoecium (female organs of the flower) called the "ovary".
