What a insight inside, Dr. Pankaj! Pollinia = "paired sacs of pollen <http://botany.csdl.tamu.edu/FLORA/Wilson/tfp/ast/ascpage2.htm>" & "What you pointed at pollinia is not pollinia, IT IS A SAC INSIDE WHICH ONE LOBE OF POLLINIA IS HIDDEN" The pair of statements above tells me what I pointed at = A SAC INSIDE WHICH ONE LOBE OF PAIRED SACS OF POLLEN IS HIDDEN
Gynostegium = "anther + stigmatic disc <http://waynesword.palomar.edu/termfl1.htm>". & "what you pointed as 'what is this?' is called GYNOSTEGIUM" The pair of statements above tells me = NUMBER OF GYNOSTEGIUM IN THE PLATE I HAVE LABELLED IS FIVE, OF WHICH TWO ARE MARKED BY BLUE ARROWS Corona = "hood + horn <http://waynesword.palomar.edu/termfl1.htm>" & "Outer corona is the CORONA HOOD, inner corona is the CORONA HORN" The pair of statements above tells me = THOSE ASCLEPIADS WHICH HAVE SINGLE CORONA <http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=2&taxon_id=10066#KEY-1-18> WILL EITHER HAVE HOOD OR HAVE HORN So kind of you, Dr. Pankaj Thank you Regards surajit koley a *non-botanist* member of efloraofIndia google group On Fri, May 29, 2015 at 1:47 PM, Pankaj Kumar <[email protected]> wrote: > I dont know which question mark stands for which question, but you need to > spend some time to find a plant in flower and open up the flower and you > will know where pollinia is. > What you pointed at pollinia is not pollinia, IT IS A SAC INSIDE WHICH ONE > LOBE OF POLLINIA IS HIDDEN (PUT YOUR PENCIL TIP ON THE GLAND AND PULL IT > OUT TO SEE POLLINIA) and what you pointed as 'what is this?' is called > GYNOSTEGIUM (KIND OF A STAGE ON WHICH MALE AND FEMALE PARTS ARE LOCATED IN > THIS SECTION OF APOCYNACEAE).
