3.3. Development of perfect flower
In both floral morphs, primordia are disc-shaped at early stage (Figs.
5a,6a). Then, immediately expand to opposite side (Figs. 5b,6b). Floral
organs fractionate as sectorial group-like pattern. Petals initiate as
clockwise direction whereas stamens initiate as modified helical
pattern. In perfect flower, first, two petals initiate, overlapping with
1st stamen from a sectorial at one side (Fig. 5c).
Then, it becomes again disc-shaped, followed by inception of
2nd stamen that overlapped with 3rdand 4th petals (P3-P3) at the opposite side. Third
stamen and 5th petal (P4) initiated in a lateral side
(Figs. 5d). The floral meristem expands again to opposite sides. The
4th stamen arise at lateral side between
2rd-3th petals (P2-P3) whereas the
5th stamen initiate between 4nd and
5rd petals (P3-P4) (Fig. 5e). All primordia enlarged
rapidly, become prominent (Fig. 5f). The carpels start to initiate as
small cavity along with petal enlargement and differentiation of stamen
into short filaments and spherical anthers (Fig. 5g-h). In mature
flower, loculaments of carpels with well-developed ovules are observable
(Fig. 5i).
