I. Abstract
For more than 170 years there has been a controversy about the organization of the siliqua, a fruit typical for the Brassicaceae and, in modified forms, also for members of Capparaceae, Papaveraceae, and Fumariaceae. Because in the Berberidaceae fruit forms resembling a "semi-siliqua" are produced, they are also controversial. A siliqua is typically furnished with two placental regions joined by a septum and dehiscing through detachment of two sterile valves....

KNAT(1) and ERECTA regulate inflorescence architecture in Arabidopsis
Plant Cell
; RESEARCH ARTICLE Plant architecture is dictated by morphogenetic factors that specify the number and symmetry of lateral organs as well as their positions relative to the primary axis. Mutants defective in the patterning of leaves and floral organs have provided new insights on the signaling

The taxonomic position of Parodianthus (Verbenaceae): a morphological survey of the gynoecium and inflorescence
Kew Bulletin
; Summary. In order to evaluate the taxonomic position of Parodianthus, morphological features of partial inflorescences, gynoecium and fruit were studied. The partial inflorescence is a two-flowered reduced raceme; the gynoecium is bicarpellate and paracarpous; the ovules are pendulous, marginally
