PLATE I — Fig. 1 Side view of normal grass spikelet. Fig. 2: Diagrammatic longitudinal section of a normal grass spikelet. Fig. 3: Bulbil type of proliferation. Fig. 4: Longitudinal section through a bulbil showing progressive sterilisation of floral parts, development of a root primordium, the formation of the abcission layer and the vegetative apex. Fig. 5: Proliferation with elongated rachilla. AG = Abortive Gynoecium; AL = Abcission Layer; C = Lodicules; G = Gynoecium; L = Lemma; LL = Leafy…
