Organogenesis of inflorescences in the lateral buds of grapevine (Vitis vinifera L. cv. Pinot)The formation of inflorescences in lateral buds has been investigated by studies of longitudinal sections of paraffin-embedded lateral buds. The lateral buds at position 6 (from the base) were collected from non-decapitated shoots, from the middle of May to the end of June. The different developmental stages of inflorescence and also a chronological analysis have been described. The observations inform about the organogenetic ch aracteristics which occur in the absence of decapitation of the main shoot
