| 11. | More simply stated, lateral bud formation is inhibited by the shoot apical meristem ( SAM ).
|
| 12. | In the shoot, the shoot apical meristems regularly produce new lateral organs ( callus ."
|
| 13. | In contrast to vegetative apical meristems and some exflorescence meristems, floral meristems cannot continue to grow indefinitely.
|
| 14. | This indicates that the apical meristem is dead and there will be no new leaf production or growth.
|
| 15. | The center of the stem, which contains the growing point ( the apical meristem ), is sunken.
|
| 16. | If apical dominance is complete, it prevents any branches from forming as long as the apical meristem is active.
|
| 17. | The apical meristem may be consumed to make an inflorescence or other determinate structure, or it may be aborted.
|
| 18. | :If you eat fresh veggies, you eat stem cells all the time, e . g . apical meristem.
|
| 19. | Together, this indicates that PIN-mediated auxin polar transport plays a central role in flower initiation at the shoot apical meristem.
|
| 20. | It mediates changes within the apical meristem, causing bud dormancy and the alteration of the last set of leaves into protective bud covers.
