TL;DR: It is shown that the peculiar expression pattern of a functionally conserved floral gene in the center of the Lacandonia schismatica flower underlies its unique inside-out arrangement (i.e., central stamens surrounded by carpels), suggesting relatively simple genetic alterations may underlie large morphological shifts fixed in extant natural populations.

TL;DR: This paper provides a developmental framework to understand floral characters in the Triuridaceae and addressed if L. schismatica and T. brevistylis bear true flowers or pseudanthia, and the data support the former.
