A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses The transformation of the inflorescences to foliage-shoots formed the starting-point; it occurred only under narrowly defined conditions, namely on cultivation as a cutting in moist air and on removal of all other leaf-buds. Darwin and Modern Science The rachis of the inflorescence is usually cylindrical. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses The inflorescence is a raceme or a panicle. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses The elongation of the axis which occurs in the female cones has been already alluded to under the head of prolification of the inflorescence.

A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses The leaf-sheaths are glabrous, usually all short except the one next to the inflorescence which is two or three times as long as the lower sheaths. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses In the genera Polytoca and Coix the spikelets are unisexual and the male and female spikelets are found in the same inflorescence, the female being below and the male being continuous with it. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses Another illustration of the sort is that recorded by M. Fournier, wherein the usually umbellate inflorescence of Pelargonium was, through the lengthening of the main stalk, transformed into a raceme. Vegetable Teratology An Account of the Principal Deviations from the Usual Construction of Plants The inflorescence consists of three to five digitate spikes, 3/4 to 1-1/2 inches long, erect or spreading, pale green or purplish. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses The inflorescence consists of two to six softly hairy spikes which are yellow or brown 1 to 4 inches long. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses The inflorescence consists of two spikes, 1-1/2 to 2 inches long; joints and pedicels of the pedicelled spikelets equal, hairy at the back and at the angles. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses The inflorescence consists of a solitary, glabrous, and compressed spike, with a somewhat fragile rachis; the joints are compressed, hollow and clavate. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses This has been observed in pelargoniums and in the Chinese primrose, in both of which the effect was to replace the umbellate form of inflorescence by a capitate one. Vegetable Teratology An Account of the Principal Deviations from the Usual Construction of Plants The inflorescence consists of two to five rarely six, very slender spikes, 3 to 8 inches long, forming a terminal whorl. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses The inflorescence consists of two racemes, closely appressed together on a very slender peduncle; the joints are shorter than the spikelets and with long brown hairs. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses Nodes are covered with long hairs below, but nodes nearer the inflorescence are glabrous. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses The inflorescence is a leafy panicle of many small spikes enclosed in spathiform bracts. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses In normal morphology this has, to some extent, been worked out, as in the case of definite and indefinite, centrifugal and centripetal inflorescences, and in the definite or indefinite formation of shoots, &c. Vegetable Teratology An Account of the Principal Deviations from the Usual Construction of Plants Cattle eat it when young, but avoid it when the inflorescence is mature. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses The inflorescence consists of solitary, binate, digitate, or panicled racemes. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses The inflorescence consists of paired spikes with very slender peduncles arising from flattened, glabrous, acuminate spathes, varying in length from 1/2 to 1-1/4 inches. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses The stalk of the whole inflorescence is long, slender, smooth and glabrous. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses Other instances may be cited in the frequent co-existence of regular flowers and definite inflorescence, the terminal position of many peloriated flowers, the relationship between indefinite inflorescence and prolongation of the axis, &c. Vegetable Teratology An Account of the Principal Deviations from the Usual Construction of Plants The inflorescence is a narrow pyramidal raceme of slender, spreading or deflexed spikes. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses The inflorescence consists of a solitary spike with closely imbricating spikelets. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses The inflorescence consists of spikes, or spiciform racemes, solitary or digitate, and in some it is paniculate. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses The inflorescence is a narrow panicle, cylindric, with short crowded branches, some of them remote lower down, peduncle is smooth, and rachis smooth or scaberulous; branches and pedicels are scaberulous. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses The inflorescence is a narrow, lax panicle with short, erect, capillary branches. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses These bud-like bodies are the units of the inflorescence and they are called spikelets.

A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses The inflorescence consists of two to six spikes in terminal umbels. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses The inflorescence consists of from four to nine spikes digitately arranged on a long peduncle and the leaf-sheath enclosing the inflorescence is somewhat large and inflated. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses The inflorescence consists of digitately arranged spikes 1-1/2 to 4 inches long on a peduncle which is sometimes 15 inches long. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses The flowers are aggregated together on distinct shoots constituting the inflorescence of grasses. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses This species is a tall robust one resembling Chloris barbata in its inflorescence, but with larger spikelets—as large as those of Chloris tenella. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses The leaf-sheaths are shorter than the internodes, flat, compressed, glabrous, with a few hairs or not at the mouth and with membranous margins; the uppermost sheath is spathiform enclosing the inflorescence when young. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses The inflorescence is a contracted panicle, 6 to 18 inches long with spreading or suberect, alternate or opposite spikes which are capillary and vary from 2 to 4 inches in length. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses The inflorescence is a panicle with short branches, 1 to 3 inches long, rachis is pubescent; peduncle is 2 to 4 inches long, pubescent. A Handbook of Some South Indian Grasses Sooner or later all the branches of a grass-plant terminate in inflorescences which usually stand far above the foliage leaves.
