Zygomorphic flower with vexillary aestivation, diadelphous androecium and marginal placentation occurs in
Zygomorphic flower with vexillary aestivation, diadelphous androecium and marginal placentation occurs in
The correct option is A
Pisum
Pisum commonly known as a pea is a genus of flowering plant
belonging to family Fabaceae. In Fabaceae, the flowers are
zygomorphic (bilateral symmetry), bisexual. The petals 5,
polypetalous, the posterior outermost petal is large (the vexillum or
standard), two lateral petals (the wings or alae) and the two
anterior and innermost petals are united to form a boat-shaped
structure (the keel or carina), descending imbricate or vexillary
aestivation. Stamens are 10, diadelphous (stamens united by their
filaments so as to form two groups). Placentation is marginal
(placenta forms a rigid along ventral side and ovules are arranged in
two vertical rows). So,
the correct answer is 'Pisum'.
