Class A genes, that gives
|
Sepal
|
|
Petal

|
Stamen
|
|
Carpel
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The Class C Floral Organ Identity genes are necessary for the proper development of the stamens and carpels normally found in the third and fourth whorls of the flower. The Class A and C activities are mutually antagonistic, meaning in Class C mutants, the Class A activity expands to include the two inner whorls.
Detailed explanation-2: -The B gene functions are defined by the genes APETALA3 and PISTILLATA. The net effect of B gene mutations is that whorl 2 develops as a sepal rather than a petal, and whorl 3 develops as a carpel not a stamen.
