Jaltomata dendroidea campanulate flower development. a, b Stage A: Sepals develop asymmetrically from the abaxial side. c Stage A: Once equal in size, sepals extend through growth of the underlying meristem, giving rise to a fused tube. d, e Stage C: Partial removal of sepals reveals development of petals and stamens. f–h Stages D–G: Petals are largely free from early development to stamen thecae differentiation in 1.6 mm-wide flowers; however, there is a small zone of fusion about the stamen attachment point. i Stage F: Carpels are partially fused above the developing ovary. Scale bars = 100 μm, and bud diameter also provided in bottom right corner. s, sepal; p, petal; st, stamen; tri, trichome; fus, corolla fusion; fil, anther filament; g, gynoecium; sty, style
