WHAT DOES TEPAL MEAN IN ENGLISH?

tepal

Tepal

A tepal is a part of the outer part of a flower in which the petals and sepals are of similar shape and color, or undifferentiated, and therefore cannot be easily distinguished from one another. When different types of organs can be distinguished, they are referred to as sepals and petals. The term was first proposed by Augustin Pyramus de Candolle in 1827. De Candolle used the term perigonium for the tepals collectively; today this term is used as a synonym for "perianth". Undifferentiated tepals are thought to be the ancestral condition in flowering plants. For example, Amborella, which is thought to have separated earliest in the evolution of flowering plants, has flowers with undifferentiated tepals. Distinct petals and sepals would therefore have arisen by differentiation, probably in response to animal pollination. In typical modern flowers, the outer or enclosing whorl of organs forms sepals, specialised for protection of the flower bud as it develops, while the inner whorl forms petals, which attract pollinators. In some plants the flowers have no petals, and all the tepals are sepals modified to look like petals.

Definition of tepal in the English dictionary

The definition of tepal in the dictionary is any of the subdivisions of a perianth that is not clearly differentiated into calyx and corolla.
