Ground leaf litter was inoculated with the fungus Coriolus versicolor and incubated in respirometers for 6 days ("fresh" cultures) or 33 days ("senescent" cultures) before different number of Folsomia candida were added. Grazing by 5 animals stimulated 02 consumption in both series of cultures but 1
Removal of the leaf primordia hastens the rate of leaf initiation at the apex, and a paste containing 0.2 % IAA in lanoline will substitute for the effect of the leaf primordia. Physical factors involved in the alteration in bud structure resulting from defoliation, such as gaseous diffusion and sha
