foliaceous structure |
Compound with the number of orders of leaflets indicated by the prefix, each order palmate; as in bipalmate. |
|
simple-lipped |
= haplocheilic |
architecture |
stomate |
Having subsidiary cells not derived from the primary stoma mother cell and thus not immediately related ontogenetically to the guard cells. |

architecture |
pollen grain |
Syncolpate, each groove containing a pore. |
|
laminate |
|
architecture |
foliaceous structure |
Having an expanded, more or less planate, distal portion (lamina or blade). |
|
winged 1 |

architecture |
|
Having one or more elongate, relatively thin protrusions or appendages that resemble wings. |

|
architecture |
flower, androecium |
Having stamens unequal in size and/or shape. |
|
capitulescence |
|
architecture |
|
Mode or progressive pattern of bearing capitula (heads); most appropriately described using adjectival terms; esp. in Asteraceae (Compositae). |
|
cyathiate |
|
architecture |
inflorescence |
Comprising one or more cyathia. |
|
geminicolpate |
|
architecture |
pollen grain |
Having four or more surficial grooves (colpi) disposed in pairs. |
|
trilete |
|
architecture |
spore |
Having a triradiate tetrad scar. |
|
amphistom(at)ic |
= amphistomatous |
architecture |
foliaceous structure |
Having stomata on both the adaxial and abaxial surfaces. |
|
climbing-rooted |
< aerial-rooted |
architecture |
plant, structure |
Bearing climbing roots. |
|
exstipitate |
= sessile, stalkless, unstalked |
architecture |
structure |
Lacking a stalk, thus inserted ("sitting") directly upon the bearing structure. |
|
choripetalous |
= apopetalous, dialypetalous, polypetalous |
architecture |
flower, perianth, corolla |
Having two or more distinct petals; having the petals unfused. |
|
polypetalous |
= apopetalous, choripetalous, dialypetalous |
architecture |
flower, perianth, corolla |
Having two or more distinct petals; having the petals unfused. |
|
diffuse-rooted |
> fibrous-rooted |
architecture |
plant |
Having a dense system of adventitious, slender roots that arise from the base of the main stem and functionally replace an evanescent primary root. See also taprooted. |
|
…flowered |
= …floral |
architecture |
inflorescence |
Having the number of flowers indicated by the prefix; as in few-flowered, single-flowered, three-flowered. |
|
spathe-like |
= spathaceous |
architecture |
foliaceous structure |
Resembling a spathe. |
|
dendritic |
= tree-like |
architecture |
|
Like the branched axial structure of a tree. |
|
radiant 1 |
|
architecture |
capitulum (head) |
Bearing one or more peripheral series of florets that are bisexual, pistillate, or neuter and that have relatively large actinomorphic corollas, and one or more central series of usually bisexual florets that have relatively small actinomorphic corollas; in Asteraceae (Compositae). |
|
flabelliramous |
= polytomous |
architecture |
axis |
Branching by division of the apical meristem to produce more than three equal derivatives. |
|
single-leafleted |
= one-leafleted, unifoliolate |
architecture |
foliaceous structure |
Structurally compound but with only one leaflet, whose nature (as a leaflet, not a leaf) is revealed by an evident articulation with the petiole, this condition presumably derived by evolutionary reduction from a multifoliolate precursor. |
|
syndetocheilic |
= compound-lipped |
architecture |
stomate |
Having subsidiary cells derived from the primary stoma mother cell and thus immediately related ontogenetically to the guard cells. |
|
winged 2 |
= alate, saccate, vesiculate |
architecture |
pollen grain |
Having lateral lobes or enations that resemble sacs or somewhat inflated wings. |
|
stalked 1 |
= pedicellate |
architecture |
flower |
Having a pedicel. |
