1. A syncarpous gynoecium can sometimes appear very much like a monocarpous gynoecium. 2. The degree of connation ( " fusion " ) in a syncarpous gynoecium can vary. 3. It can be a challenge to determine how many carpels fused to form a syncarpous gynoecium. 4. The four stamens are adnate to the corolla, and the ovary is bicarpellate and syncarpous . 5. The flower has a syncarpous gynoecium ( fused-carpellate ovary ) with 5 carpels and has parietal placentation. 6. The ovary is syncarpous and have either 4 or 2 locules, each one housing 1 or 2 anatropous ovules. 7. If a gynoecium has multiple carpels " fused " into a single structure, it is "'syncarpous " '. 8. In a syncarpous gynoecium, the " fused " ovaries of the constituent carpels may be referred to collectively as a single compound ovary. 9. There are three fused carpels ( syncarpous ) with one to three chambers ( locules ), a single style and a three-lobed stigma. 10. If a syncarpous gynoecium has a single style and stigma and a single locule in the ovary, it may be necessary to examine how the ovules are attached.
