Pistia stratiotes is an aquatic macrophyte that grows in temporary-ponds in the southern Pantanal, Brazil. It reproduces both sexually and asexually and is usually observed forming dense mats on the water surface, a condition favored by the plant's vegetative reproduction coupled with an ability for rapid growth. In this study we examined the effect of densely crowded conditions on the producti...

The reproductive success of sibling cocklebur plants (Compositae: Xunthium strumarium) was monitored after growth at different levels of availability of water and nutrient resources. Variation in reproductive success among individual plants was related to physiological, structural, and phenological characteristics. Reproductive success increased with increased availability of resources, but the...

excessive vegetative growth may bring about improper pollination and consequently lead to reduced fruit set and misshapen fruits. paclobutrazol (pp333) reduces vegetative growth. on the other hand, balanced nutrient uptake at all developmental stages increases fruit quality and yield. an experiment was conducted with the aim of reducing vegetative growth and improving yield of strawberry, selva...
