Hi Everyone,

I have a question on flower development in Monocots. The reason I am
asking this is because I am working with Gene Ontology group
(www.geneontology.org) to introduce the biological process that
represent a flower development. While doing this we need to instantiate
whether,

-It is possible to do most of the gene expression and phenotype
annotation using a generic term or do we need a monocot and dicot
specific term?.
-Is there a conceptual difference between the development of a monocot
and dicot flower and its parts? e.g. is there a difference between a
monocot and dicot anther/carpel/petal/sepal/tepal development.


Thanks
Pankaj
