Journal ArticleDOI

Growth and senescence in plant communities exposed to elevated CO2 concentrations on an estuarine marsh.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that elevated atmospheric CO2 can cause increased aboveground production in a mature, unmanaged ecosystem and increase in primary productivity in S. olneyi growing in both the pure and mixed communities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cessation of tillering in spring wheat in relation to light interception and red : far-red ratio.

TL;DR: It is suggested that cessation of tillering is induced when the fraction of light intercepted by the canopy exceeds a specific threshold and red : far-red ratio drops below 0.40.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ready, steady, go! A sugar hit starts the race to shoot branching

TL;DR: The diversion of sugars away from axillary buds decreases bud release even where hormones are at levels generally considered conducive to bud release, and the impact of sugars on bud outgrowth may be mediated by specific sugar and hormonal signalling pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trehalose 6-phosphate is involved in triggering axillary bud outgrowth in garden pea (Pisum sativum L.).

TL;DR: Data show that changes in bud Tre6P levels are correlated with initiation of bud outgrowth following decapitation, suggesting thatTre6P is involved in the release of bud dormancy by sucrose.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of phosphorus nutrition on tiller emergence in wheat

TL;DR: This work determined whether tiller emergence under low phosphorus availability is a function of the availability of assimilates for growth or a direct result of low P availability, and attempt to establish a quantitative relation between an index of theavailability of P in the plant and the effects of P deficiency on tiller emerged.

Tillering in grasses—its significance and control*

TL;DR: The physiological results are used to suggest reasons for the commonly found apparent inability of heavily fertilized perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) swards to regrow after cutting at the inflorescence-emergence stage of growth.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of plant density on tiller growth and morphology in barley

TL;DR: The growth of the tiller bud may be controlled by levels of endogenous gibberellin, while in the final stage, growth after emergence from the subtending leaf sheath, competition for light appears to be the factor which determines whether a tiller survives to produce an ear.
Journal ArticleDOI

The tillering pattern in barley varieties: II. The effect of temperature, light intensity and daylength on the frequency of occurrence of the coleoptile node and second tillers in barley

TL;DR: Control-environment experiments showed that development of the coleoptile node tiller (T1) was suppressed much more than that of the tiller appearing in the axil of the first true leaf (T2) by high temperature, reduced photoperiod or by low light intensity, but minimally in the newest variety, Deba Abed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of Shading the First Leaf of Barley Plants on Growth and Carbon Nutrition of the Stem Apex

TL;DR: Evidence is provided to show that in control plants the second leaf supplies carbon to the apex from about day 12, and the crucial importance of the contribution of the first leaf to plant development is discussed.
