Description

The Movements and Habits of Climbing Plants

Since the publication of this Edition two papers by eminent botanists have appeared; Schwendener, Das Winden der Pflanzen (Monatsberichte der Berliner Akademie, Dec. 1881), and J. Sachs, Notiz ber Schlingpflanzen (Arbeiten des botanischen Instituts in Wrzburg, Bd. ii. p. 719, 1882). The view that the capacity of revolving, on which most climbers depend, is inherent, though undeveloped, in almost every plant in the vegetable kingdom (Climbing Plants, p. 205), has been confirmed by the observations on circumnutation since given in The Power of Movement in Plants. On pp. 28, 32, 40, 53, statements are made with reference to the supposed acceleration of the revolving movement towards the light. It appears from the observations given in The Power of Movement in Plants, p. 451, that these conclusions were drawn from insufficient observations, and are erroneous. Introductory remarksDescription of the twining of the HopTorsion of the stemsNature of the revolving movement, and manner of ascentStems not irritableRate of revolution in various plantsThickness of the support round which plants can twineSpecies which revolve in an anomalous manner. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
