They contain both male ( androecium ) and female ( gynoecium ) characteristics and are symmetric radially, but sometimes as a mirror image.
32.
At the center of the flower are six erect stamens with filaments expanded at the base and fused into a low cup around the gynoecium.
33.
;Gynoecium : Superior nucleus, are referred to as " Fritillaria-type ", a characteristic shared by all the core Liliales.
34.
Gynoecium development and arrangement is important in systematic research and identification of angiosperms, but can be the most challenging of the floral parts to interpret.
35.
In the flowering plants, an "'ovary "'is a part of the female reproductive organ of the flower or gynoecium.
36.
A fruit results from maturation of one or more flowers, and the gynoecium of the flower ( s ) forms all or part of the fruit.
37.
The staminodial ring bears six short lobes and sagging, empty anthers; gynoecium egg-shaped to cylindrical, the apical stigmas becoming scaly nearing antithesis.
38.
There are six epipetalous staminodes, with triocular, triovulate, scaly, ovoid gynoecium and three fleshy, divergent, rugose stigmas, attached at the base.
39.
There are six tiny staminodes with ovoid, uniovulate gynoecium matted in thin brown scales and bearing a three-angled stigma; the ovule is ?pendulous.
40.
The pistillate flowers are larger with broadly imbricate sepals and valvate petals; there are three toothlike staminodes borne at the side of the ovoid, uniovulate gynoecium.
