Nonlinear processes in seagrass colonisation explained by simple clonal growth rules
The development of single clones of the seagrass Cymodocea nodosa was analysed using a growth model based on the formation of structures limited by diffusive aggregation. The model implemented the measured clonal growth rules (i.e. rhizome elongation and branching rates, branching angle, and spacer length between consecutive shoots) and shoot mortality rate for C. nodosa at Alfacs Bay (Spain). ...
متن کاملPlant Cell Growth and Elongation
The plant cell wall is a strong material that resists expansion when water is taken up by the protoplast; for cells to expand irreversibly, the existing wall architecture must be loosened to permit the insertion of newly synthesized wall polymers. Biochemical approaches have identified changes in wall composition that occur during growth and some of the enzymes involved in wall loosening, whils...
متن کاملGibberellin-Stimulation of Rhizome Elongation and Differential GA-Responsive Proteomic Changes in Two Grass Species
Rapid and extensive rhizome development is a desirable trait for perennial grass growth and adaptation to environmental stresses. The objective of this study was to determine proteomic changes and associated metabolic pathways of gibberellin (GA) -regulation of rhizome elongation in two perennial grass species differing in rhizome development. Plants of a short-rhizome bunch-type tall fescue (T...
متن کاملGrowth and sediment space occupation by seagrass Cymodocea nodosa roots
The development, growth, and space occupation by the canopy and rhizosphere of a temperate Mediterranean seagrass meadow of Cymodocea nodosa, and the possible effects of meadow seasonal development on sediment redox conditions, were examined during the 1998 growth season. The meadow supported maximum biomass of leaves and rhizomes during July, and maximum root biomass in August. The meadow main...
متن کامل"growth-promoting Substance" and Elongation of Roots
The vertical elongation of normal roots of Lupinus seedlings proceeds at constant rate over periods of 4 to 5 hours. The decapitation of a root stops its elongation for a variable length of time, followed by a period of renewed elongation at a rate lower than that of the normal root. The tipping of the decapitated root with a tip of a coleoptile of Zea induces a decrease in the rate of elongati...
