(14) In both sets of chimeras, carpel number as well as the size of the floral meristem during carpel initiation were not determined by the genotype of cells in the outer two layers of the meristem (L1 and L2) but were determined by the genotype of cells occupying the inner layer (L3) of the meristem.

(18) The agamous gene therefore probably encodes a transcription factor that regulates genes determining stamen and carpel development in wild-type flowers.
(19) Interspecific chimeras were generated between tomato and L. peruvianum, which differ in number of carpels per flower.

Pome
Definition:
(n.) A fruit composed of several cartilaginous or bony carpels inclosed in an adherent fleshy mass, which is partly receptacle and partly calyx, as an apple, quince, or pear.
(n.) A ball of silver or other metal, which is filled with hot water, and used by the priest in cold weather to warm his hands during the service.
(n.) To grow to a head, or form a head in growing.
