Dependence of the Stomatal Index on Environmental Factors during Stomatal Differentiation in Leaves of Vigna sinensis L.: II. EFFECT OF DIFFERENT LIGHT QUALITY

Using appropriate coloured lights, we show that phytochromeis involved in stomatal differentiation. This photoperceptionis located within the whole shoot. This action is also shownfor in vitro leaves. The nature of the morphogenetic informationis discussed. Key words: Stomatal differentiation, Phytochromy, Vigna sinensis L.
