Griesel-floral Primordia Initiation in Cestrum
نویسنده
چکیده
in this report that C. nocturnum is both LD and LSD in its responses and that the previously reported critical day length is for the LD responses while the LSD response has a critical day length of between 12 and 16 hours. This more clearly defining of the 2 responses in C. nocturnum brings into focus the previously suggested questions as to whether a single hormone can he synthesized as a result of more than 1 stimulus, and if a plant can respond to more than 1 hormone (2). One of the approaches that may give further information concerning the nature of the responses is through the study of hybrids of C. nocturnum with closely related species. Such an investigation is in progress. Summary

Initiation of Floral Primordia in Cestrum diurnum and Cestrum nocturnum in Response to Various Photoperiodic Patterns.
Information concerning the plhotoperio(lic response of Cestrum isocturnums L. was initially reported by Sachs (4). From his investigation he found it was a long-short day (LSD) plant and, under experimental conditions he used, did not produce floral primordia in response to other light patterns. More recent work with C. niocturnunti confirmed the previously reported LSD response but added that ...
متن کاملInheritance of Factors Affecting Floral Primordia Initiation in Cestrum; Hybrids of C. elegans and C. nocturnum.
Photoperiod patterns of hybrids of Cestrum elegans (Brongn.) Schlect., a day neutral plant, and C. nocturnum L., a long-short day and long day plant, were investigated. Plants of the F(1) generation, F(2) generation, and backcrosses to each parent were tested on short day, long day, continuous light, long-short day and short-long day for floral primordia initiation. The data recorded suggest 2 ...
متن کاملChanges of edogenous hormone levels during short-day inductive floral initiation and inflorescence differentiation of Chrysanthemum morifolium ‘Jingyun’
Duration of various stages of inflorescence differentiation and hormone levels in apical buds eventually decide the harvest time, flower uniformity and quality of ornamental plants. The progress in inflorescence differentiation process in the chrysanthemum cultivar ‘Jingyun’ can be divided into nine stages. Following short day induction, it took 4d to reach the growing point hypertrophy stage, ...
متن کاملPhotoperiodic Responses of Two Cestrum Species and Non-Interchangeability of Their Flowering Hormones.
Recently Lincoln et al. (2) isolated a fraction froml the leaves of induced Xanthiniiii struiarinin-i L. which, w-hen applied to the leaves of noninduced plants of X. pennsvlzvaniculn WVallr., caused formation of flower primordia. With this dliscovery it becomes nmore important that we examine various species to determine, if possible, whether a single flowering hormone is present in Angiosperm...
متن کاملArabidopsis floral phytomer development: auxin response relative to biphasic modes of organ initiation
In the Arabidopsis inflorescence meristem (IM), auxin is considered a prepatterning signal for floral primordia, whereas a centripetal mode of positional information for floral organ identity is inherent to the ABCE model. However, spatio-temporal patterns of organ initiation in each whorl at the earliest initiation stages are largely unknown. Evidence suggests that initial flower development o...
