circumcaulous |
|
insertion |
|
Upon and surrounding the stem. |
|
inframedial |
|
insertion |
|
Slightly below the middle of the structure in point. |
|
surficial |
= superficial |
insertion |
|
Directly upon the surface of the structure in point. |
|
ramal |
|
insertion |
|
Upon or otherwise directly associated with the stem branches. |
|
infrapetiolar |
|
insertion |
bud |
Axillary and surrounded by the petiole base at maturity. |
|
staminodial |
|
insertion |
|
Upon or otherwise directly associated with the staminodes. |
|
pseudoaxillary |
|
insertion |
|
Only apparently axillary; originally extraaxillary but displaced to the axil by differential growth during development. |
|
septal |
|
insertion |
|
Upon or otherwise directly associated with the septum or septa. |
|
subapical |
= subterminal |
insertion |
|
Lateral and just below the apex. |
|
acrocaulous |
|
insertion |
|
At or very near the stem tip. |
|
epibracteal |
|
insertion |
|
Upon the bracts, or partially adnate thereto and apparently arising therefrom. |
|
discal |
|
insertion |
|
Upon or otherwise directly associated with the floral disc. |
|
antipetalous |
|
insertion |
equivalent floral structures |
Each inserted directly above or below a petal. In place of this term, the phrase "opposite the petals" is often used, but that contradicts the sense of opposite as otherwise employed (arrangement of lateral structures along an axis) and should be avoided. |
|
antisepalous |
|
insertion |
equivalent floral structures |
Each inserted directly above or below a sepal. In place of this term, the phrase "opposite the sepals" is often used, but that contradicts the sense of opposite as otherwise employed (arrangement of lateral structures along an axis) and should be avoided. |
|
canalicular |
|
insertion |
|
Upon or otherwise directly associated with the channel of a petiole or petiolule. |
|
medial |
= central, median |
insertion |
|
At, upon, or closely ranged about the structural or symmetrical midpoint or axis. |
|
nodal |
> interpetiolar |
insertion |
|
Upon or associated with the nodes. |
|
collateral |
|
insertion |
buds |
In pairs within or immediately straddling the leaf axils, the members of a pair lateral to one another. |
|
median |
= central, medial |
insertion |
|
At, upon, or closely ranged about the structural or symmetrical midpoint or axis. |
|
vallecular |
|
insertion |
|
In or otherwise directly associated with the valleculae; esp. in fruits of Apiaceae (Umbelliferae). |
|
gynobasic |
|
insertion |
style |
Apparently arising from the ovary base. |
|
petiolar |
|
insertion |
|
Upon or otherwise directly associated with the petioles. |
|
floral |
|
insertion |
|
Upon, within, or associated with the flowers. |
|
pseudoterminal |
|
insertion |
|
Only apparently terminal; originally subapical but displaced toward the apex by differential growth during development. |
|
leaf-opposed |
|
insertion |
|
Nodal and directly opposite the leaf. |
