Try the parameter 'intern = TRUE' to execGRASS to get a string with 
space separated names of rasters:


library(rgrass7)
initGRASS(gisBase="/usr/lib/grass76", gisDbase="/home/micha/GIS/grass",

     location="nc_basic_spm_grass7",

     mapset="PERMANENT",

     override=TRUE)

rast_list = execGRASS('g.list', type='rast', pattern='elev*', intern = TRUE)
rast_list = strsplit(rast_list, split=" ", fixed=TRUE)
rast_list
[[1]]
[1] "elevation"

[[2]]
[1] "elevation_shade"
