Carpophore
Definition:
(n.) A slender prolongation of the receptacle as an axis between the carpels, as in Geranium and many umbelliferous plants.

(7) The observed relationship between levels of amanitins in carpophores and resistance of the RNA synthesizing activities to inhibition by alpha-amanitin supports the hypothesis that amanitins may function as regulators of mRNA transcription in Amanita species.
