write 5 difference between monoadelphous and diadelphous.
Answers
Filaments of all stamens are united forming a single bundle but the anthers are free.
Example- Cotton.
Botany) Having all its stamens within a flower fused together at least partly by the filaments.
• 1988 , Michael Hickey & Clive King, 100 families of flowering plants , Cambridge University Press, 2007 digital reprint, p. 326:
•The stamens are monadelphous and are united for more than half their length into an open tube adnate to the petals
Filaments are united forming two bundles and anthers are free.
(Botany)Having its stamens fused together at least partly by the filaments so that they form two separate bundles, or a bundle and a lone separate stamen.
Example- Pea.
Answer:
When the filaments are fused with each other is called adelphous .
Monadelphous stamens -
- Filaments of all stamens are united forming a single bundle but the anthers are free.
- This results in a flower with a large central column that bears many anther sacs.
- The most notable example of monadelphous stamens is in the Malvaceae family also other families can have this feature on some occasions, like Fabaceae and Rosacea, and probably many others.
- Example :- Cotton , Hollyhock , Hibiscus , etc .
Diadelphous Stamens -
- It is the condition where stamens are fused together at least partly by the filaments and arranged into two separate bundles.
- Besides the two groups, there is one lone stamen hanging out by itself.
- The most notable examples are in Fabaceae or Leguminosae .
- Example :- Pea , Chinese wisteria , Sesbenia bispinosa .
