This axis comprised successive nodes, each having a simple leaf, separated by internodes of variable length. |
In the studied stem segments, the leaf traces extended for four internodes before the connection with the other vascular bundles. |
While most vegetative metamers have short internodes, metamers that form at the end of the vegetative phase have elongated ones. |
The articulated colonies of Crisia fragment into their constituent internodes after decay of the elastic joints. |
Eleven centimetre long shoot segments were obtained from internodes of previous year shoots, placed vertically and fitted to plastic tubing. |
The shoot, especially in the upper part, was elongated in OB plants with longer internodes but the same leaf number. |
