| In Angiosperms (flowering plants), the term locule usually refers to a chamber within an ovary (gynoecium or carpel) of the flowerand fruits. Depending on the number of locules in the ovary, fruits can be classified as uni-locular (unilocular), bi-locular, tri-locular or multi-locular. The number of locules present in a gynoecium may be equal to or less than the number of carpels. The locules contain the ovules or seeds. |
