 AllRefer.com - sepal (Botany, General) - Encyclopedia
The sepals of a flower are collectively called the calyx and act as a protective covering of the inner flower parts in the bud.
Sepals are usually green, but in some flowers (e.g., the lily and the orchid) they are the same color as the petals and may be confused with them.
sepal, a modified leaf, part of the outermost of the four groups of flower parts.

 Sepal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A sepal is a tepal (a segment) of the calyx of a flower.
When the flower is in bud, the sepals enclose and protect the more delicate floral parts within.
However, in a "typical" flower the sepals are green and lie under the more conspicuous petals.

 Tepal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It corresponds to the sepals and petals in the flowers of other plants, but unlike these, all tepals are of the same form, not being differentiated into the protective, not insect-attracting sepals that serve to protect the developing bud, and larger, insect-attracting petals.
More specifically, a tepal is a floral part of plants in the Class Magnoliopsida, as for example, in the Family Magnoliaceae and a number of other primitive flowering plants such as the Amborellaceae and Calycanthaceae.
In a general sense, a tepal is any member or segment of the perianth of a flower, such as a petal or sepal.

 sepal
The sepals are derived from modified leaves, and are collectively known as the calyx.
In some plants, such as the marsh marigold Caltha palustris, where true petals are absent, the sepals are brightly coloured and petal-like, taking over the role of attracting insect pollinators to the flower.
Part of a flower, usually green, that surrounds and protects the flower in bud.

Sepals were disinfested, separated at the base, and cultured on a solidified medium as previously described [15] at 16 or 28°C. Samples of sepals cultured at both temperatures were subsequently harvested at various times, i.e., 0, 2, 14, and 24 days, and frozen immediately in liquid nitrogen.
Sepals from small green fruit 3- to 10-mm diameter were harvested from greenhouse-grown plants (Lycopersicon esculentum cv.
Flowers of these plants exhibited homeotic and meristic transformations such as petaloid sepals and carpelloid stamens [29].

 GAMLS - Iris Analyses
Four measurements: sepal length, sepal width, petal length, and petal width were made by Fisher on 50 different plants from each of three species of Iris (Iris setosa, Iris versicolor, and Iris virginica).
As a demonstration of this capability we consider the case of predicting Petal Length from Sepal Length and Sepal Width: PL = f(SL, SW), when very few Petal Length measurements are available.
Finally, use of all three measurements (Petal Width, Sepal Length, and Sepal Width) results in an accuracy of 6% (Table D1.1).

Around these reproductive organs is the perianth, usually consisting of an outer whorl of sepals and an inner whorl of petals.
Surrounding the carpels are several narrow stalks topped by pollen sacs; these pollen-bearing stalks are called stamens.
