Abstract: | The short-day plant Lemna paucicostata 6746 can be induced toflower on long days (continuous light) by the addition of copper,tungstate or ferricyanide to the medium, and in each case theeffect was greatly enhanced by deleting molybdate from the medium.Treatment with asparagine, aspartate, glutamate, -alanine, glycineorserine, all of which are known to increase the critical daylengthand almost nullify the light-break effect in L. paucicostata6746, enhanced the long-day flowering induced by copper, ferricyanideor Mo-deficiency.
