466 Interestingly, the formation of these tissues is inducible: for example, they are formed when woody plant (tree) stems are displaced away from alignment with the gravitational field, or when branches are growing or otherwise placed under an increased load (e.g., through accumulation of ice...
So last weekend, I cleared out the debris, leaving a few hopeful stems that were still green in case they might sprout leaves again. Even my parsley died! The Bull’s Blood beets seem to have survived; the pansies will come back; a couple of kale plants are trying to regenerate. That...
By contrast, woody plants maintain their woody scaffolding (including stems and woody roots) year-round and only shed the ephemeral parts such as leaves or ephemeral roots. However, perennial herbaceous plants also maintain a persistent living tissue mainly at the juncture between the above and ...
Evan Angelos (Kalamazoo College, Michigan) and Alec Womboldt (Manchester University, Indiana) were supported by the GLBRC Summer Experience for Undergraduates (SEU) program. We thank Nick Santoro (GLBRC, MSU) for the starch, sucrose, and Glc analyses and Venkatash Balan (laboratory of Bruce ...

My herbaceous peony garden is blooming with brilliant pinks and whites! Every year, I’m always amazed by the dazzling display of these beautiful flowers - it’s one of the most anticipated sights on my Bedford, New York farm. Friends and family love the peonies as much as I do and rush...
‘Meiju’ with a high ratio of length to width (Supplementary TableS7); (n) mature leaves and stems of ‘Yangfei Chuyu’ still covered by thick white hairs; (o,p) ‘Die Lianhua’ never produced any fruits, and immature fruits of ‘Linghua Chenyu’ dropped early (Supplementary TableS15)...
In addition, the saline California marshes are dominated by Salicornia pacifica (pickleweed), a perennial herb with woody stems, producing high biomass [64]. In the Everglades, biomass carbon stocks are constrained by the phosphorus-limited environment [65]. Additionally, years of drainage, canal ...
Given the common practice of omitting stems below 1 cm dbh in tropical plant surveys, this study confirms that such studies overlook an important component of forest biodiversity. Not only is the understory community diverse, but also phylogenetically distinct. Araceae, while absent from the ...
The peak height over 2.5 m was observed on date of 25 May 2005 during its late vegetative re-growth period. The plant height was gradually reduced to less than 2 m from the maturity period to the senescence period because plant stems started to bend in this stage. Seasonal dynamics of fre...
