A ray flower is a two- or three-lobed, strap-shaped, individual flower, found in the head of most members of the Asteraceae. [15] [16] The corolla of the ray flower may have two tiny, vestigial teeth, opposite to the three-lobed strap, or tongue, indicating its evolution by fusion from an ancestral, five-part corolla. In some species, the 3:2 ...
The ray floret is female with one pistil containing one style, two stigmas, and an ovary with one ovule. Labeled parts are as follows: Labeled parts are as follows: 1 – corolla (petals) (three petals are joined to form a strap, and in the case of 5 petals, they form a ligule);

[m] The ovary has an attached style that extends outward from between the ray floret corolla and the rest of the flower head. As the ray floret is blooming, the stigma at the top of the style ...
The edges of the leaves generally have tiny widely spaced teeth. The inflorescence is a large dense cluster of many very small flower heads, sometimes over 300 in one cluster. Each flower head contains 0-1 yellow or whitish ray floret and 0-2 yellow disc florets. [8] [4] This plant exhibits C 4 carbon fixation.
