Rice, Litchi, and Mango have a panicle type of inflorescence, which is a branched cluster of flowers where the lower flowers open first.

Wheat and Bajra (pearl millet) bear a spikelet, also referred to as head or ear, which is a dense, unbranched inflorescence.

Mustard exhibits a corymbose raceme, where flowers are arranged on short stalks of unequal length along the main axis, giving a flat-topped appearance.

Maize (corn) has:

A tassel as the male inflorescence at the top of the plant.

A silk as the female inflorescence, which emerges from the ear (cob) and is the style of the female flower.

Sugarcane produces a feathery terminal inflorescence known as an arrow.

Sunflower displays a capitulum (also called a head), a compact arrangement where many small florets are grouped on a flattened receptacle.
