“…In the transition of the vegetative meristem to the inflorescence meristem, the key aberrant organogenic feature of Fas inflorescences is the perturbation of the shoot apex: Fas shifts the direction of growth (apex width doubles its height) away from the normal transition of the vegetative meristem into an inflorescence (Cheng, Greyson, and Walden, 1983;Stevens et al, 1986;Sundberg, LaFargue, and Orr, 1995;Sundberg and Orr, 1996), and promotes a bifurcation of the abnormal broad transition meristem into two primary inflorescence axes each with a terminal apical meristem.
