an inflorescence in which the main axis has several lateral branches, each of which is several flowered; more specifically, in which both the main axis and/or lateral branches are indeterminate (ie racemose or monopodial); thyrse = (1) a mixed i

ATRFT1: an indeterminate inflorescence in which the flowers are produced in a much branched, complex structure resembling the branching pattern of a tree. It is important to realize that panicles can incorporate other basic inflorescence patterns such CFFP: a much-branched inflorescence; thyrse = a mixed inflorescence in which the main axis is indeterminate and the secondary and ultimate axes are determinate or cymose FPW: strictly a branched raceme, with each branch bearing a further raceme of flowers. More loosely it applies to any complex, branched inflorescence. Thyrse (of inflorescences) Densely branched, broadest in the middle and in which the mode of branch SSA: a compound raceme; an indeterminate inflorescence in which the flowers are borne on branches of the main axis or on further branches of these. Thyrse = a panicle with the secondary and ultimate axes cymose ie the main axis is indeterminate an CGBT: a much-branched inflorescence; thyrse = a mixed inflorescence in which the main axis is indeterminate and the secondary and ultimate axes are determinate or cymose IPT: an indeterminate branch system whose primary axis bears branched secondary axes and pedicellate flowers, such as in many grasses; thyrse = a branch system of compound dichasia, arising from a primary axis of indeterminate growth; this type somew
