Abstract/Contents: | In vegetative plants of Italian ryegrass and Westerwolds ryegrass, removal of the 2 youngest emerging leaves resulted in increased expansion of basal tiller buds. A similar release of inhibition of tiller buds took place if the floriferous apex was removed. The surgical procedures did not affect the response. Under conditions of N-deficiency, total tiller number was reduced but on removal of the apex the deficient plants showed an increased initial rate of tiller bud expansion. Apical dominance during the vegetative stage of growth in this species was apparently due to the expanding leaves in the vegetative apex, but in the flowering plant the control was exerted by the inflorescence or the elongating stem. |
