Abstract
Beginning with Lang's comprehensive review (17S), this is the ninth article in this series dealing with physiology of flowering, or certain aspects thereof. Since the last review (88) several general articles and books dealing with flower formation have appeared. A chapter on plant reproduction (235) in a Treatise of Plant Physiology gives extensive coverage of the older literature on both vernalization and photoperi odism. The topic of vernalization has also been covered in a book on Temperature and Life (20S). Reviews on phytochrome and flowering (269, 271), hormones and flowering (9), the shoot apex in seed plants (101), and a survey of early changes in evoked apices (16) all contain material pertinent to the present review. Several articles summarizing work in Chailakhyan's laboratory have appeared (43-46). Flowering in two of the world's major crops, rice (268) and sugarcane (7), have also been summarized. Further, a review on flower initiation in woody plants has ap peared (129), and one on the role of GA in strobilus formation in conifers (217). Recently two books on flowering have been published: one (270) that gives a com prehensive coverage of all photoperiodic responses in plants with emphasis on flowering, and a paperback
