glume

Deyeuxia compacta, with a small panicle and unusually broad glumes, represents an extreme form of this variable species.

Glumes ovate-elliptic, hirtellous above middle; leaf sheaths about as long or longer than internodes.

Plants usually with long rhizomes; spikelets usually disarticulating below glumes; lemma usually without distinct callus at base.

This rare race differs from the others by having glumes and lemmas narrowly acuminate , the glumes subequal to the lowest lemma.

Glumes obscurely keeled proximally, indistinctly so distally; spike rachis usually tough and not disarticulating.

Annual, lacking non-flowering shoots at anthesis; spikelets obovate-cuneate; glumes firm, inflated.

Apical spikelet usually well developed; glumes not keeled or keeled only at apex, rarely keeled throughout length.

Spike simple, never branched at base; glumes slightly shorter than or equaling lemma, leathery, winged.

glumes often poorly differentiated from accompanying bracts in bamboos.

Glumes oblong-lanceolate, scabrous along veins and margin, apex acute or acuminate.

Spikelets in compact umbellate clusters; glumes absent.

This is a variable species, usually with apparently awnless spikelets, where in fact a weakly developed awn is enclosed within the glumes.

Glumes and lemmas ciliate only along middle vein and margins, or glumes glabrous.

The spike photosynthesis is necessary to maintain the well-balanced metabolizability of glumes of wheat.

Culm sheaths thin; glumes and lemma densely glaucous, sparsely puberulous or nearly glabrous.

Glumes and lemma glabrous, rarely laxly spinescent hairy.

In the grasses bracts are borne in pairs below the spikelets and are called glumes.

a wheatgrass with straight terminal awns on the flowering glumes.

Spikelets with 1 floret; glumes usually absent, especially in proximal spikelets.

Racemes digitate; glumes shorter than the exposed floret.

having densely tufted white cottony or down like glumes.

The 3 prominent, green veins of the glumes are an obvious feature of the spikelet.

Callus of lemma smooth; glumes subulate.

Glumes not winged on keel, ciliate; glume margins almost free; anthers ca. 1 mm.

Glumes chartaceous, broadly lanceolate to ovate, subequal, 1-veined.

This is a polymorphic species showing much variability in the disposition of hairs on the glumes.

Glumes awned, the awns often sticky.

Glumes scabrid along keel; culms not swollen at base.

Spikelets (1 or)2 or 3 per node; glumes covering only base of first lemma.

Glumes membranous, 1-veined, lower glume ca. 0. 8 mm, upper glume ca. 1 mm, falling off when mature.

Spikelets large, wedge-shaped, laterally compressed, florets several, rachilla disarticulating above glumes and between florets;

Glumes narrowly lanceolate, usually asymmetric, smooth, or scabrous along veins, margin membranous, apex acuminate;

glumes subequal, membranous or thinly cartilaginous;

glumes villous or sparsely pilose to glabrous, hairs tubercle-based, apex acuminate or short awned;

glumes 2, lower glume close to lower lemma, without subtended buds;
