| Abstract: | Chenopodium rubrum L. ecotype 184 is a qualitative short-day plant with critical length of the night of eight hours that must be exceeded in order to flower: Five days after sowing, the plants were exposed to a various number of inductive cycles (14/10 h of däy/night cycle) to test the optimal photoperiodic conditions for flowering. In our experimental conditions the plants flowered with high percentage after more than four received inductive cycles, but there was no flowering below that. The plants grown on the herbicide Norflurazon (photobleached plants) showed different photoperiodic characteristics. There was negligible flowering of photobleached plants in the same experimental conditions as for the green ones. |
