A staminode is a sterile or abortive stamen in botany, which does not produce pollen. Staminodes can be inconspicuous, stamen-like, nectar-producing, or petal-like, and are used for species differentiation in some plants.
A review of different approaches to classify staminodial structures in the angiosperms, based on their position, function, and homology. The article discusses the importance of staminodes for the evolution of the androecium and flower, and the challenges of molecular-based interpretations of staminodes.
Staminode is a sterile stamen that does not produce pollen. Learn about the types, structure, and function of staminodes and how they differ from fertile stamens in plant systematics.
18 lut 2020 · Staminodes are sterile organs that have evolved from stamens in the genus Aquilegia. This article describes their histological and transcriptomic features, and how they differ from stamens and other floral organs.
1 paź 2000 · Stamens that have lost their primary function of pollen production, or staminodes, occur uncommonly within angiosperms, but frequently fulfill important secondary floral functions. The phylogenetic...
Staminodes are stamens that have lost their pollen function and often perform other floral roles. This paper reviews the phylogenetic distribution, genetic control, and functional shifts of staminodes in different angiosperm groups.
Learn about the staminode, a novel floral organ in Aquilegia, and its development and function. Find out how the staminode is formed, what role it plays in the flower, and how it affects the microbiome of the carpel.
