Flower phenotypes of eight S. ruiz-lealii plants. A, B and C, normal flowers from plants 13.4, V0 and 17.1, respectively. D, E and F, flowers from plant 6. D, intermediate flower phenotype with twisted anthers and normal petals and style. E, twin flower. F, flower with twisted style. G and H, flowers from plant 13.2. G, flower with bilateral symmetry. H, staminoid petals (sepals and style removed). I, flower from plant 19.3 that resembles normal flower, but with dissected petals. J, carpelloid stamens from plant 19.3. K, extreme flower phenotype from plant 19.3, with rudimentary stamens and petals. L, M, N and O, flowers from plant 03. L, normal flower. M, flower with staminoid petals and rudimentary stamens. N, flower with reduced number of stamens, dissected petals and fusion between a stamen and the pistil. O, flower with extra number of petals (dissected) and reduced number of stamens. P, Q and R, flowers from plant 9. P, normal flower. Q, flower with staminoid petals, rudimentary stamens and bifurcated stigma. R, flower with dissected petals and twisted anthers.
