Meaning of "umbellule" in English

An "umbellule" refers to a small secondary umbel in the inflorescence of certain plants. In botany, an umbel is a type of flower cluster in which the individual flower stalks arise from a common point, somewhat resembling the ribs of an umbrella. An umbellule is essentially a smaller, secondary structure branching off from the main umbel. It is common in plants belonging to the Apiaceae family, such as carrots and parsley, where it helps in maximizing exposure to pollinators.

Meaning of "umbellule" in French

In French, "umbellule" retains a similar meaning, denoting a small secondary umbel within the floral arrangement of certain plant species. Botanically, it describes a compound umbel structure where smaller clusters (umbellules) stem from the larger main umbel. This hierarchical floral formation is prevalent in several plant families, notably the Apiaceae family, encompassing species like carrots (carottes) and dill (aneth), enhancing the plant's reproductive efficacy by structuring flowers to optimize pollination access.
