Abstract: The branches of successive orders of the inflorescence of Panicum miliaceum L. arise in the axils of the bracts of the branches of next lower order. Their initiation is evidenced by periclinal division of sub-hypodermal cells. The primordia of branches arise in initiation like a normal axillary bud. The floral histogenesis of Panicum miliaceum L. is similar to that of Triticum. Primordia of the spikelet, flower and stamen are initiated by the activity of the periclinal division of the sub-hypodermal cell or cells. Sometimes, periclinal divisions also occur in a few hypodermal cells during these primordial developments; such divisions are more frequent in the formation of the flower and stamen primordia than in the formation of the spikelet primordia. The periclinal division of the dermatogen ceils never occurs in the formation of these organs. Glumes and lemma are initiated in the periclinal division of the dermatogen and hypodermal cell or cells. The primordia of the palea, lodicule and carpel are initiated by means of the periclinal division in the dermatogen cell or cells. In the formation of the palea and carpel, periclinal divisions also occur in hypodermat cells, but their derivatives are protruding into the bases of the primordia and do not constitute the tissues of the palea and carpel. The growing point of the flower axis develops into the ovule. The integuments arise from the periclinal division of dermatogen cells. The periclinal division of dermatogen cells is characteristic of the initiation of the phylloid organs in the Gramineae.
