Abstract
When gametophytes of Onoclea sensibilis are grown in darkness a filament of a few cells develops which elongates at a constant rate. Low dosages of red light given at the beginning of growth increase the rate of elongation. After about 12 days in darkness, however, gametophytes show a decreased growth rate when given red light.This publication has 9 references indexed in Scilit:
