BackgroundBackgroundOrigin – Modified shoot
Floral Morphologyo Calyx (sepals)o Corolla (petals) - 3’s in monocots and 4’s or 5’s in dicots)
o Perianth (calyx + corolla)o Gynoecium (pistil- stigma, style, ovary)
o Androecium (stamen- anther, filament)

Floral anatomyFloral anatomyLocules – Open space inside ovary
Carpels – Basic developmental unit◦Apocarpous (carpels not fused) ◦Syncarpous (carpels fused)
Pistil ◦ Simple – Unicarpellate (1 carpel)◦ Compound – Syncarpellate (2 or more carpels FUSED)

Types of flowersTypes of flowersBased on pollination
◦ Entomophily (insect)◦ Anemophily (wind)
Based on presence of floral whorls◦ Complete flower - All 4 floral whorls
present ◦ Incomplete – Not all 4 floral whorls present
Based on presence of sexes◦ Perfect – Both sexes present◦ Imperfect – Not both sexes present
![Page 9: Biology – 328 Lab](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/568167dd550346895ddd3af4/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Based on line of symmetry◦ Actinomorphic (regular)– more than one
plane of symmetry◦ Zygomorphic (irregular)– One plane of
symmetry
Based on sexual expression ◦ Monoecious – “One house” (male and female
part present in the same flower in the same plant or different flowers in the same plant)
◦ Dioecious – “Two house” (male and female flowers in different flowers in different plants
![Page 10: Biology – 328 Lab](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/568167dd550346895ddd3af4/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Based on ovary position◦ Hypogynous (superior ovary) – Floral
whorls arranged below (=hypo) ovary (=gynous)
![Page 11: Biology – 328 Lab](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/568167dd550346895ddd3af4/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
◦ Epigynous (Inferior ovary) – Floral whorls arranged above (epi) ovary (=gynous)
![Page 12: Biology – 328 Lab](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/568167dd550346895ddd3af4/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
◦ Perigynous (superior ovary) – Floral whorls arranged around (=peri) overy (=gynous). Presence of well developed HYPANTHIUM (cup) made of receptacle and bases of sepals, petals and stamen

![Page 14: Biology – 328 Lab](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/568167dd550346895ddd3af4/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Types of inflorescencesTypes of inflorescencesRaceme – Unbranched inflo. with pedicel
and indeterminate (young flowers on top).Eg. Orchid, Milkwort
![Page 15: Biology – 328 Lab](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/568167dd550346895ddd3af4/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Spike – Same as receme but no pedicel (sessile flowers)Eg. Gladious, Hyacinth
![Page 16: Biology – 328 Lab](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/568167dd550346895ddd3af4/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Catkin/Ament - Same as spike, but unisexual Eg. Oak, Pecan, Birch, hickory, willow
![Page 17: Biology – 328 Lab](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/568167dd550346895ddd3af4/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Umbel – All pedicels arise from a common pointEg. Onion, Garlic
![Page 18: Biology – 328 Lab](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/568167dd550346895ddd3af4/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Compound Umbel – Group of umbels whose peduncles arise from same pointEg. All members of Apiaceae (carrot family)
Panicle – Inflorescence which branches and rebranches. For eg. Yucca, Lilac, Wisteria
![Page 19: Biology – 328 Lab](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/568167dd550346895ddd3af4/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Head/Capitulum – Dense arrangement of sessile flowers on a common receptacleEg. Sunflower, Daisy, Aster, Thistle
![Page 20: Biology – 328 Lab](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/568167dd550346895ddd3af4/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Today’s LabToday’s Lab• Carefully EXAMINE all floral material provided using the
following exercise and questions as a guideline. To gain an ultimate familiarity with floral morphology, compare the material against descriptions and definitions in your lecture notes or textbook. Become familiar with cross and long sections.
• 1. Flowers are arranged in groups called inflorescences. We will examine some inflorescences particular to certain families later in the semester. For now, know what an inflorescence is and which one we looked at today.
• 2. DRAW a longitudinal section of a typical flower labeling the following parts: receptacle, calyx, sepals, corolla, petals, perianth, pedicel, ovary, ovule, style, stigma, pistil, gynoecium, anther, filament, stamen, and androecium.

Today’s LabToday’s Lab• 3. EXAMINE by dissection the floral material provided making long
and cross sections of the flower and its parts. On a separate sheet of paper, SKETCH the flowers and label the parts. Then, FOR EACH FLOWER, answer the following questions:
• Is the flower actinomorphic (regular) or zygomorphic (irregular)? • How many sepals are present? Petals? Stamens? Carpels? To
count carpels, count the style branches and/or count the zones of placentation by cross- sectioning the ovary.
• Is the ovary inferior or superior? • Is the flower from a monocotyledonous or dicotyledonous plant? • Is the flower perfect (both sexes present) or imperfect? Complete
(all four floral whorls) or incomplete?
