Photoperiodic induction of senescence in Xanthium plants

Photoperiodic induction of senescence in Xanthium plants

Xanthium plants placed under photoinductive conditions were accelerated in their senescence whether or not the plants had a capacity to produce flowers and fruits. Thus, the role of the mobilization influence of these organs on the senescence of certain monocarpic plants can be questioned.
