Diagram showing the stigma-style-ovary system of the female reproductive organ of a plant. The stigma is fixed to the apex of the style , a narrow upward extension of the ovary . The stigma ( pl. : stigmas or stigmata ) [ 1 ] is the receptive tip of a carpel , or of several fused carpels, in the gynoecium of a flower .
Diagram of flower parts. In botany, floral morphology is the study of the diversity of forms and structures presented by the flower, which, by definition, is a branch of limited growth that bears the modified leaves responsible for reproduction and protection of the gametes, called floral pieces.
Floral diagram of Anagallis arvensis. [1]: 307 The dot represents the main axis, green structure below is the subtending bract. Calyx (green arcs) consists of five free sepals; corolla (red arcs) consists of five fused petals. Antepetalous stamens are joined to petals by hairy filaments.

ABC model of flower development guided by three groups of homeotic genes.. The ABC model of flower development is a scientific model of the process by which flowering plants produce a pattern of gene expression in meristems that leads to the appearance of an organ oriented towards sexual reproduction, a flower.
Monodelphous – stamen filaments united as a tube. Poricidal – anthers opening through terminal pores. Staminode – a sterile stamen. Staminodial – (1) concerning a sterile stamen; (2) flowers with sterile stamens. Synandrous – anthers are connected . Syngenesious – anthers are united as a tube; the filaments are free .
