Figure 6. Schematic diagram of inflorescence development along with genes that are likely to affect the various developmental stages.

Figure 6

SAM, shoot apical meristem; AM, axillary meristem; IM, inflorescence meristem; SPM, spikelet-pair meristem; SM, spikelet meristem; FM, floret meristem. The genes were: Fea2, fasciated ear2; Td1, thick tassel dwarf1; Bif2, barren inflorescence2; Bd1, branched silkless1; qKNPR6, a QTL for kernel number per row on chromosome 6.
