show the flower morphology of okra?and breeding techniques of okra?

Answer 1

Flower morphology :
The flowers are bisexual or functionally unisexual, usually actinomorphic, often associated with conspicuous bracts that form an epicalyx. The perianth consists of usually 5 valvate, distinct or basally connate sepals and usually 5 distinct petals (sometimes lacking) that are often basally adnate to the androecium. The androecium consists of 5-numerous stamens, these distinct, fascicled, or monadelphous with apically divergent filaments; anthers 1- or 2-loculed; staminodes sometimes present. The gynoecium is a single compound pistil of 2-many (sometimes loosely united) carpels with styles and stigmas equaling the carpels in number and distinct, or variously united; the ovary is superior with 2-many locules, each bearing 1-numerous, usually axile ovules. The fruit is a loculicidal capsule, schizocarp, nut, indehiscent pod, aggregate of follicles, drupe, or berry, or samara.

The ost common methods used for breeding okra are
1.Selection
2.Hybridisation

The F-1 hybrids showing excellent hybrid vigour are dominating the market. Attempts are being made through Genetic Engineering to breed Okra varieties with resistance to a predominant viral disease -Yellow vein Mosaic. GE methods are being employed to develop varieties resistant to sucking pests.

Answer 2

I may perhaps be a different breed of woman, but honestly flowers aren't all that important to me. It's sweet, particularly on days like valentines day, but honestly I'd rather have the things that cost nothing. I'd be far more blown away by a man who simply reached over to hold my hand for a little while than I would getting flowers. And I'd much prefer a dozen little kisses planted all over my face to a dozen roses. Though I will agree with you on the picnics and the walks. I'd say those are above the giving of flowers as well though. I'm not so sure all men have forgotten these things either. Surely not all the prince charmings of the world have become extinct.

Floral Biology Of Okra

Answer 4

prakash did ok on thre breeding part but the description of floral morphology covered almost all flowering plants.

Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) is best known as a vegetable crop in the southern region of the United States. It is a member of the Hibiscus family (Malvaceae) and has the typical floral characteristics of that family.

Answer 5

To be honest, I don't believe that's correct

Answer 6

You raise some good points in your question.
