We investigated the early floral development of the monotypic genus Amborella, the sister to all other extant angiosperms. Examination of vegetative shoot development revealed that Amborella possesses both decussate and alternate phyllotaxy; one may simply be a special case of the other as a reaction to meristem size and shape. The transition from bracts to tepals is gradual, making it difficult to determine exactly where a flower begins in this species. Although flowers of Amborella are… CONTINUE READING
