Family Fabaceae differs from Solanaceae and Liliaceae. With respect to the stamens , pick out the characteristics specific to family Fabaceae but not found in Solanaceae or Liliaceae.
Diadelphous and Dithecous anthers
Polyadelphous and epipetalous stamens
Monoadelphous and Monothecous anthers
Epiphyllous and Dithecous anthers
Answers (1)
The correct option is Option 1) Diadelphous and Dithecous anthers.
Family Fabaceae, also known as the legume family, is characterized by several distinguishing features, including the stamen characteristics. Diadelphous and Dithecous anthers are specific to the family Fabaceae and are not found in Solanaceae or Liliaceae.
Diadelphous anthers refer to the stamens being fused into two groups, with one group containing nine stamens and the other group containing one stamen. This arrangement is commonly observed in the flowers of the Fabaceae family.
Dithecous anthers refer to the anthers having two thecae or pollen sacs. Each theca contains pollen grains. This is another characteristic feature specific to the Fabaceae family.
In contrast, Solanaceae and Liliaceae do not typically exhibit diadelphous or dithecous anthers. Solanaceae family members often have stamens that are either free or fused together in different arrangements, and the anthers may have different structures. Liliaceae family members usually have six stamens with anthers that are usually not fused in distinct groups.
Therefore, Option 1) Diadelphous and Dithecous anthers is the correct option for the stamen characteristics specific to the family Fabaceae but not found in Solanaceae or Liliaceae.
