 On a larger scale, inflorescence architecture affects the quality and quantity of offspring from selfing and outcrossing, as the architecture can influence pollination success.For example, "Asclepias" inflorescences have been shown to have an upper size limit, shaped by self-pollination levels due to crosses between inflorescences on the same plant or between flowers on the same inflorescence.In "Aesculus sylvatica", it has been shown that the most common inflorescence sizes are correlated with the highest fruit production as well.
