Vexillary

Vedclass · Answer

(D) The correct answer is $D$. In $Vexillary$ aestivation, the posterior large standard petal (vexillum) overlaps the two lateral petals (wings or alae), which in turn overlap the two anterior smallest petals (keel or carina). This type of aestivation is characteristic of the family $Fabaceae$, such as in $Pea$ $(Pisum 	ext{ } sativum)$ and $Gram$.
