Abstract
Flowering in Lemna paucicostata 6746 could be induced by tannic acid under strictly non-inductive photoperiods. This polyphenol completely abolished the photoperiodic sensitivity of strain 6746 as flowering could also be obtained under continuous light (nearly 80% flowering was recorded in the plants supplied with 10-5 tannic acid). Though its mode of action is unknown, tannic acid is unlikely to act as a gibberellin-antagonist in its effect on flowering in strain 6746.
