FRUIT

caryopsis:

A small one-seeded dry indehiscent fruit (as of corn or wheat) in which the fruit and seed fuse in a single grain

Berry

The botanical definition of a berry is a fleshy fruit produced from a single flower and containing
one ovary. Grapes and bananas are two common examples. The berry is the most common type of fleshy fruit in
which the entire ovary wall ripens into an edible pericarp. They may have one or more carpels. The seeds are
usually embedded in the fleshy interior of the ovary, but there are some non-fleshy exceptions, such as peppers,
that have air rather than pulp around their seeds.
 INFLOROSCENCE
RACEME
A raceme is an unbranched, indeterminate type of inflorescence bearing pedicellate flowers (flowers having short
floral stalks called pedicels — along its axis). In indeterminate inforescences like racemes, the oldest flowers are
borne towards the base and new flowers are produced as the shoot grows, with no predetermined growth limit. A
compound raceme, also called a panicle, has a branching main axis.[3] Examples of racemes occur on mustard
(genus Brassica) and radish (genusRaphanus) plants.

Axis- In botany, axis means a shoot, in this case one bearing the flowers. A plant that flowers on a showy raceme
may have this reflected in its scientific name, e.g.Cimicifuga racemosa.

SPIKE

A spike is an unbranched, indeterminate inflorescence, similar to a raceme, but bearing sessile flowers (sessile
flowers are attached directly, without stalks).[2] Examples occur on Malabar nut (Justicia adhatoda) and chaff flowers
(genus Achyranthes)[3]

SPIKELET

A spikelet can refer to a small spike. A true spikelet comprises one or more florets enclosed by
two glumes (sterile bracts), with flowers and glumes arranged in two opposite rows along the spikelet.[3] Examples
occur on rice (species Oryza sativa) and wheat (genus Triticum), both grasses.[3]
