Issue: 1
Pages: 43-51

Abstract

Provides a detailed comparison of leaf growth and morphology between Solidago sempervirens and S. rugosa. Solidago sempervirens has one leaf that rapidly elongates at a time, and this leaf prevents others from elongating. The elongation and rapid growth corresponds to high levels of auxin.
