    Study Notes

    Floral Characteristics

    • Flowers having sepaloid petals are exemplified by Poinsettia.
    • Bougainvillea displays bisexual and thorny stems as its floral characteristics.
    • Bougainvillea does not display petaloid sepals as its floral characteristic.
    • Daffodils display tepals as their floral characteristic.

    Allogamy

    • Allogamy offers the advantage of increased genetic variation in reproduction.
    • Allogamy provides cross-pollination, which is a potential advantage.
    • Allogamy is considered a surer method compared to autogamy because it reduces inbreeding depression.
