Floral morphology is remarkably diverse and plays a vital role in plant adaptation and reproductive success.Understanding the mechanisms regulating floral development can provide key insight into the evolution of diverse floral forms (Becker et al. 2011).Inflorescences are clusters of flowers arranged on a plant stem and their morphology is determined, in part, by internode spacing patterns and the arrangement and number of lateral meristems, which form branches and flowers (Prusinkiewicz et al. 2007).
