Sepals are not male or female. They are the outer, protective layer of the bud and are found at the base of flowers outside the petals. Inside the sepals and petals are the male and female flower parts. Does every flower have a sepal? Most flowering plants have sepals, but grasses are...
Among these mysteries is the differentiation of four distinct organ types (sepals, petals, stamens and carpels), each of which may be a modified leaf. A landmark accomplishment in plant developmental biology is the ABC model of flower organ identity. This simple model provides a conceptual ...

Puri (1948) interpreted the inner series of the corona of Passiflora as staminodial, the outer series as ventral elaborations of sepals and petals. Another possibility is that the corona neither consists of staminodes nor ventral parts of petals but instead represents a new formation, as the ...
not have clear homologs of sepals and petals, and instead, the floret has unique organs called the palea, the lemma and the lodicules. The development of the inflorescence also shows unique features. Florets are formed in a group called a spikelet, ...
The parts of a flower Sepals protect the bud until it opens. Petals attract insects. Stamens make pollen. Carpels grow into fruits which contain the seeds. Male Parts Anther This is the part of the stamen that produces and contains pollen. It is usually on top of a long stalk that look...
Like nectaries, pseudonectaries also show considerable variation in size (from ~0.01 to ~0.5 cm), number (i.e., one, two, or many), location (i.e., on sepals, petals, stamens, or staminodes), color (i.e., green, yellowish, pink, or even black), and morphology (i.e., ...
Neither female nor male flowers have petals, but petal-like sepals form the petaloid perianth, especially the curly and enlarged sepals in female flowers that compensate for the loss of petals. Multiple comparison analysis showed that 24 (96%) of the 25 MIKCCgenes exhibited significantly ...
