Comparative morphology of the carpel in the Liliaceae: Colchiceae (Colchicum)
TLDR
The pistil of Colchicum is syncarpous, the carpels having open sutures or well-marked commissures and many bitegmic ovules of variable orientation, and there are usually three dorsal bundles and three alternate, septal bundles at the base of the pistil.About:

The Bases of Angiosperm Phylogeny: Floral Anatomy
TL;DR: An eclectic ramble through phylogenetic aspects of floral structure includes the following: Sterling's view that the ancestral flowers of Rosaceae had only two ovules per carpel is examined and rejected, and it is concluded that centrifugality is not as valuable a phylogenetic indicator as some systematists had hoped it would be.

Comparative morphology of the carpel in the Liliaceae: Glorioseae
TL;DR: The pistils of the Glorioseae (Gloriosa, Littonia, Sandersonia) are generally tricarpellate and alike; they have many ovules, some of which are barely bitegmic, with inner integuments often nearly fused with nucellar remnants.

Comparative morphology of the carpel in the Liliaceae: Hewardieae, Petrosavieae, and Tricyrteae
TL;DR: The young pistils in the melanthioid tribes, Hewardieae, Petrosavieae and Tricyrteae, are uniformly tricarpellate and syncarpous, and all are multiovulate, with bitegmic ovules.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative morphology of the carpel in the Liliaceae: Colchiceae (Androcymbium)
TL;DR: A statistical evaluation of 47 species (6 genera) of the hemisyncarpous Wurmbaeoideae shows a significant tendency for bitegmic ovules and two simple septal bundles per septum to be associated with open sutures and for monotegmic eggs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative morphology of the carpel in the Liliaceae: Uvularieae
TL;DR: Three genera of the UVularieae (Kreysigia, Schelhammera, Uvularia) have tricarpellate, syncarpous pistils and no raphides were found in the carpels of these genera.

Otogenetische Beobachtungen an einkarpelligen Griffeln und Griffelenden
TL;DR: The einfachste Form des Griffels is das gefaltete, unverwachsene Karpellende, dessen Spitze and Mittelrippe nicht auffallig in Erscheinung treten (z. B. Ranunculaceen, Saxifragaceen) as discussed by the authors.

Comparative morphology of the carpel in the Liliaceae: Neodregeae
TL;DR: The structure of the carpel has been studied in flowers of the Neodregeae (Dipidax and NeodRegea) and found that all the NeODregea have monotegmic ovules.
