Agenda
Revisions to inflorescence branch terms & axis terms
- Proposal that inflorescence branch (PO:0009081) be renamed higher order inflorescence axis, and that each order of inflorescence branch be renamed using its corresponding inflorescence axis exact synonym; for example, third order inflorescence branch would be renamed its current synonym, fourth order inflorescence axis.

inflorescence axis (PO:0020122)
- Current def'n: A shoot axis (PO:0025029) that is part of an inflorescence (PO:0009049).
- Revised def’n: No revisions
- Current comment: None
- Current synonyms: eje de la inflorescencia (Spanish, exact), 花序軸 (Japanese, exact), first order inflorescence branch (related), inflorescence rachis (related)
- Revised synonyms: eje de la inflorescencia (Spanish, exact), 花序軸 (Japanese, related), inflorescence branch (related), inflorescence rachis (related)
- Revised comment: An inflorescence axis (PO:0020122) has either a determinate apex, which terminates in a flower (PO:0009046), or has an indeterminate apex, which terminates in an inflorescence apical meristem (PO:0009108). Flower pedicel (PO:0009052) serves as the simplest example of a determinate inflorescence axis.
- Propose revised Comment: An inflorescence axis (PO:0020122) has either a determinate apex, which terminates in a flower meristem (PO:0000229), or has an indeterminate apex, which terminates in an inflorescence apical meristem (PO:0009108).
A flower pedicel (PO:0009052) is the simplest example of a determinate inflorescence axis.
PJ: Do we have the relationship flower develops from flower meristem?
first order inflorescence axis (PO:0025104)
- Current def'n: An inflorescence axis (PO:0020122) that is the primary or main axis of an inflorescence (PO:0009049).
- Revised def'n: No revisions.
- Current comment: A first order inflorescence axis consists of either a peduncle alone or a peduncle plus its continuation, depending on the form of the inflorescence.
- Revised comment: Monopodial inflorescences, such as a raceme, have a centrally-located main axis; this axis is a first order inflorescence axis. In contrast, sympodial inflorescences, such as the riphidium, do not have a centrally-located main axis. The basal-most portion of a first order inflorescence axis is referred to as a peduncle (PO:0009053).
- Current synonyms: inflorescence rachis (exact), inflorescence rhachis (exact), primary inflorescence axis (exact), primer orden del eje de la inflorescencia (Spanish, exact), 第一花序軸 (Japanese, exact), ray (broad)
- Revised synonyms: inflorescence rachis (exact), inflorescence rhachis (exact), primary inflorescence axis (exact), primer orden del eje de la inflorescencia (Spanish, exact), 第一花序軸 (Japanese, related)
higher order inflorescence axis (PO:0009081)
- Renaming of: inflorescence branch (PO:0009081)
- Current def'n: An inflorescence axis (PO:0020122) that is a branch (PO:0009081) arising from a first order inflorescence axis (PO:0025104) or from a higher order inflorescence branch.
- Revised def'n: An inflorescence axis (PO:0020122) that develops from an inflorescence axillary meristem (PO:0009105) of an inflorescence axis (PO:0020122).
- Current comment: None.
- Revised comment: A higher order inflorescence axis is any inflorescence axis (PO:0020122) that develops from another inflorescence axis (PO:0020122), and is named according to its position in an inflorescence (PO:0009049). Tenth order inflorescence axis (PO:0025111) is the greatest specific inflorescence axis order in the PO; when mapping annotations to inflorescence axes which are of an order greater than ten, or when order is ambiguous or unknown, annotate directly to higher order inflorescence axis.
- Current synonyms: conflorescencia (Spanish, exact), paraclade (exact), paraclado (Spanish, exact), 花序枝 (Japanese, exact), coflorescence (related)
- Revised Synonyms: conflorescencia (Spanish, broad), 花序枝 (Japanese, related), inflorescence branch (exact), paraclade (broad), paraclado (Spanish, broad), coflorescence (related)
