| Abstract/Contents: | "The rhizome tips of Poa pratensis L. are inherently negatively geotropic but grow horizontally under the dominance of the apices of their parent tillers. This dominance was rapidly lost when the rhizome tips were exposed to light. The dominance, which is also associated with the lack of cataphyll development, was increased by defoliation and when light was excluded from the parent tiller, was reduced by addition of nitrogen, but was unaffected by orientation of the rhizome apex. The axillary buds on the rhizome may abort, remain dormant, grow into rhizomes or produce aerial shoots. They are primarily under the apical dominance of the rhizome apex, but their dormancy was broken by light. In the intact plant, buds distal to the rhizome apex lost dormancy earliest but removal of the rhizome apex caused buds proximal to the cut stump to grow most rapidly. These results are discussed and comparisons are made with other rhizomatous species." |
