Comparison of the Ability of Salicylic Acid and Ferricyanide to Induce Flowering in the Long-day Plant, Lemna Gibba G3

RESUMO
Both salicylic acid and ferricyanide induce flowering in the long-day plant Lemna gibba L., strain G3 under 8- and 9-hour short days. In both cases the effect is daylength-dependent. Salicylic acid is ineffective on daylengths less than 8 hours and ferricyanide is ineffective on daylengths less than 5 hours. When both substances are given together a striking synergistic interaction is observed, and some flowering is obtained on daylengths as short as 3 hours. However, even with the optimal combinations the flower-inducing effect remains daylength-dependent.
