How can you differentiate between free central and axile placentation?
Both are the types of placentation in Gynoecium.
Free Central placentation occurs in multicarpellary but unilocular ovary. Carpels are fused only by their margins. Placenta develops in the centre of ovary as an upgrowth from ovary base which bears ovules. This is also formed by breaking down of septa from initial axile placentation. Example: Dianthus etc.
Axile placentation occurs in bi- or multicarpellary and multilocular ovary. The margins of carpels folded inward fusing together in the centre of ovary where the placentae are formed. Example: Hibiscus.
