Barley grain production linked to peptide-receptor system controlling inflorescence architecture

Grasses have evolved a wide variety of inflorescences, in which the seeds are arranged in many different ways: Some types form complex, branched inflorescences with multiple seeds, while others—such as barley—have much simpler inflorescences. In barley, each individual grain forms on a short axis called a "rachilla."
