Using Pearson's correlation analysis, the strongest vegetative predictors of butterfly richness were plant species richness, canopy cover, and herb and shrub density.
These correlations were very similar to those observed for total seeds per plant in year 3 (R = 0.457 and 0.446), suggesting that the yield correlations are most closely linked to a higher number of seeds produced in plants showing stronger vegetative growth.
These results show that the effectiveness of phytoremediation was plant-dependent, and that the interactions between plants and petroleum-degrading bacteria appeared to be relatively stronger during vegetative growth prior to the onset of reproduction [3], [4], [18].
Yet in Actinidia (Ericales) and Citrus (Rutales), expression of AGL6-like is stronger in vegetative shoot tissue than in floral bud tissue.
Habitat usually exerts strong influence on vegetative growth adapted for plant survival [ 22].
The combined results provide strong evidence that vegetative incompatibility for strains heteroallelic at the vic6 locus requires nonallelic rather than allelic interactions between two tightly linked genes, pix6 and vic6.
PRD vines exhibited a stronger control over vegetative growth as compared with DI and FI plants.
Because of their strong dependence on water, vegetative measures can be only recommended in areas where the ground-water is easily available and of reasonably good quality.
Rapamycin shows a strong inhibitory effect on vegetative growth in budding yeast (Heitman et al., 1991; Koltin et al., 1991).
