Tropical Trees as Living Systems
Alvim: Dr. Fisher, do you know of any treatment that would convert an orthotropic
into a plagiotropic branch, as you have shown in Terminalia and as is common in
cacao? In cacao it seems to be related to the diameter of the plagiotropic ...

Plant Tropisms: And Other Growth Movements
(For example, if it was simply a balance between opposing positive and negative
tendencies, each plagiotropic root would have two possible liminal positions,
oriented either upwards or downwards.) It was therefore proposed some time ago

Figure 1.4. Positive and negative gravitropism of primary roots and shoots,
respectively, of higher plants. Secondary roots and branches orient themselves at
an ...

However, when the seedling is displaced along its plane of symmetry, its root
curves to assume an acute plagiotropic angle (<90° from the gravity vector). Light
strongly enhances the downward curvature (more acute plagiotropic angle).

Understanding Plant Anatomy
This may occur, as in the Elm, even on orthotropic shoots, but it is much more
frequent on plagiotropic shoots. In the latter case it is often associated with
dorsiventrality of the plagiotropic axis itself. The genus Begonia provides
examples of this ...

Pleurocarpous Mosses: Systematics and Evolution
Z. Iwats., B.C. Tan & Touw) show the plagiotropic type of growth pattern, whereas
the other five Malesian species show the orthotropic type (Table 5.1). It is
interesting that both species showing the plagiotropic type occur mainly in Java.

Plant Canopies: Their Growth, Form and Function
part, those categories which have plagiotropic MS (although examples are seen
of models in which the MS can be plagiotropic but change to orthotropic or vice
versa, i.e. Troll's model and Mangenot's model) it can be seen that fossil plants (F
) ...
