Grawimorfizm

Gravimorphism - the influence of gravity on plant morphogenesis. It is one of the processes involved in growth correlation. The term was introduced by Wareing and Nasra in 1958. This phenomenon is responsible for polarity and dorsal-abdomen observed mainly in young plants. As a result of receiving information about the direction of gravity, it is possible to produce roots only on the lower side of shoots. The same stimulus induces the formation of reaction wood in trees. In branches whose position is changed, the apex dominance disappears and further development takes place mainly in the upper part. The growth of branches lying horizontally is not stimulated even if the buds and shoots on the upper side are removed. Gravimorphism is also a process that affects the bloom. Changes in morphogenesis occur as a result of hormonal regulation and modifications in the distribution of nutrients. Grawitropizm wiki
