With the force exerted by petals and
sepals at the time of flower closing, styli assume elongated vertical standing positioning and stigmas appear on the outside of the flower, which does not allow classification and occurrence of the different types of curvature observed in yellow and sweet passion fruit.
Gray's protologue description includes some comments about the peculiarity of the dissimilarity of the light-yellow petaloid
sepals, indicating that this species may deserve to be framed in a special section of the genus Streptanthus Nutt.
The calyx is weakly monosymmetfic with three subequal, keeled, pale green
sepals tinged distally with purple.
Flowers have four basic organs in common:
sepals, petals, stamens, and pistils.
The [F.sub.1] of HG x NG crosses were all intermediate HG (i.e., [greater than] 3 glands but fewer glands than the HG parental type on upper portion of
sepal), indicating that the putative [Mathematical Expression Omitted] allele was partially dominant to the wild type [Gl.sub.3] allele.
foliosissimum produces different concentrations of volatiles in the corolla (petals) than in the calyx (
sepals) and that the flower offers a succession of fragrances during the reproductive cycle.
The "mean" female flower was as similar in shape and size to the actual mean male flower as was possible (
sepal width,
sepal length = 13.3 mm,
sepal area 139 [mm.sup.2]).
Sepals in fruit about as long as glands or slightly longer, rounded, thin, abaxially proximally sericeous and distally glabrous, adaxially glabrous; calyx glands 8, 3-3.5 mm long in fruit, obovate, 2 partially connate.
Results of the study have shown the importance of elliptic Fourier and landmark-based to evaluate quantitatively the petal,
sepal and labellum shapes of four varieties of Mokara.
The mentioned Plant having
sepal for eating with red to yellow color.
