The central hypothesis is that all variation in inflorescence arrangements in Eugenia is homologous. This is addressed as specific aims: (i) to identify the main inflorescence developmental patterns, (ii) to test the homology of inflorescence architectures using a time-calibrated phylogeny, and (iii) to assess and update traditional terminology. Taxonomically representative samples of Eugenia inflorescences were analysed to provide an evolutionary and comparative framework. Comparative ontogenetic analysis incorporated 24 taxa, while mature material analysis encompassed 66 species included in a dated phylogeny. Racemose branching is the ancestral condition of Eugenia. Seven development inflorescence patterns were recognized and combined into five patterns (auxotelic + auxotelic cataphylls, fasciculiform + glomeruliform, umbelliform, racemiform, and thyrsoid) to focus on evolutionary traits. The auxotelic pattern is the ancestral condition of Eugenia recovered in the early nodes and in the backbone with the highest probabilities of the reconstructed phylogeny, whereas auxotelic and fasciculiform were the most recurrent patterns in Eugenia sect. Umbellatae. The relative length and number of main axes that arise from an axil are shown to be systematically relevant, while racemiform pattern is exclusive to Eugenia sect. Racemosae. Flexible inflorescence arrangements found in Eugenia reflect a continuous spectrum of morphologies derived from a common ancestral scaffold. The combination of intense floral display in the fasciculiform pattern and flexibility may represent a key innovation in E. sect. Umbellatae. This work highlights the evolutionary significance of inflorescences and improves existing terminology.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/aobpla\/plag037","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,19]],"date-time":"2026-08-19T11:53:03Z","timestamp":1787140383000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Inflorescence architecture and development in the megadiverse\n                    <i>Eugenia<\/i>\n                    (Myrteae, Myrtaceae): an evolutionary perspective"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"18","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8263-9806","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Augusto","family":"Giaretta","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Herb\u00e1rio DDMS, Faculdade de Ci\u00eancias Biol\u00f3gicas e Ambientais, Universidade Federal da Grande Dourados , Unidade II, Rodovia Dourados-Itahum, Km 12, 79804-970, Caixa Postal 364, Dourados, MS ,","place":["Brazil"]},{"name":"Herb\u00e1rio VIC, Departamento de Biologia Vegetal, Universidade Federal de Vi\u00e7osa , Av.
