Lemna paucicostata Hegelm. 6746: LIFE CYCLE AND CHARACTERIZATION OF THE COLONY TYPES IN A POPULATION

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

The sequence of frond emergence and the intervals required for daughter colony separation have been determined for Lemna paucicostata Hegelm. 6746 growing under standardized conditions. After separation of a new mother colony, the first daughter colony is produced from the left meristematic pocket and separates after approximately 60 hours, the second daughter, produced from the right pocket, separates after a further 30 hours, and the third daughter, again from the left, after a further 40 hours. The pattern of alternating longer and shorter intervals for separation of daughters continues throughout the life of the mother colony.
