Phenotype

weak allele; homeotic conversion of sepals, organ types found vary from leaves, to leaf-sepal intermediate organs and to sepals and sepal-carpels; few secondary or tertiary flowers are formed in the axils of transformed sepals; second whorl organs form petals or filaments, or rarely petal-stamens and stamens; third whorl with organs in the position of lateral stamens commonly missing and organs in axial positions usually form stamens; phenotype varies acropetally, with more complete flower-to-inflorescence conversions in basal flowers and at low temperature.
