2. what type of stigma sorghum possess?
Any1 who knows plant morphology?
1 ) In hibiscus there is no staminode ; perhaps you mean staminal tube . If it is so then the answer is -- The staminal tube in hibiscus encloses the style and the ovary .

2 )In sorghum ( Poaceae ) the stigma is feathery.

Reply:1. The staminode is an infertile stamen, usually just the filament part.

This site describes this type of stigma as "feathery".

Reply:1.um!! i dont know



2. feathery stigma.
Reply:Each anther is held aloft by a slender, pink filament, and each filament is attached to a pale, pink cylinder, known as a staminal column or "stamen tube."



The fertile flower of sorghum consists of a thin lemma and thin palea, and inside these the stamens and pistil - the latter developing into the kernel.
