| Abstrakt: | Abstract: It is wellknown that following the amputation, or darkening of one cotyledon in decapitated flax seedlings, the opposite remaining, or illuminated, cotyledon exerts a stimulatory effect on the growth of its axillary bud. For the induction of this stimulating effect a 21-72 h continuous darkening of the cotyledon is sufficient. Endogenous gibberellins take part in the stimulation effect of the illuminated cotyledon, since their level in the illuminated cotyledon increases as early as 12-48 h following the darkening of the opposite cotyledon. The apical part of the cotyledon has a higher growth stimulatory effect on the growth of the cotyledonary axillary bud than the basal half. This again is associated with endogenous gibberellins the level of which is higher in the apical half of the cotyledon than in the basal one. Upon removal of the root and hypocotyl base in decapitated flax seedlings deprived of one cotyledon, the remaining cotyledon loses its stimulatory influence, so that the bud of the amputated cotyledon grows more vigorously (Dostál 1955). In this growth correlative phenomenon the root may be substituted by cytokinin BA applied in the form of a 0.1-1.0 per cent paste onto the remaining cotyledon, for again in this case the bud of the preserved cotyledon grows more vigorously. Following the decapitation of the axillary of the amputated cotyledon in decapitated pea seedlings with an intact root and deprived of one cotyledon, the axillary of the remaining cotyledon grows more intensively than the serial of the removed one. If the plants operated on in the same way are deprived of the root, the serial of the removed cotyledon gains a correlative growth predominance. If the plants deprived of root are cultivated at the same time in a solution of BA (10-20 mg 1-1), the correlative predominance is acquired by the axillary of the remaining cotyledon. |
