Cromie Gazette Staff The water lily's origins go back more than 140 million years. Photo by Michael Donoghue. Amborella , the plant is the one remaining species of a lineage that first appeared on Earth more than 140 million years ago, while dinosaurs still ruled the planet. The other flowering plants, from which it branched, evolved and diversified until they came to dominate Earth at about the same time as the mammalian ancestors of humans were replacing dinosaurs. Flowering plants now number 250,000 different species, including virtually all the vegetables and grains we eat, as well as most of the food of the animals that we consume. "It’s difficult to imagine a world without flowering plants," says Michael Donoghue, professor of biology at Harvard University. As a result of analyzing the genes from all flowering plants suspected of being among the world’s oldest, Donoghue and research associate Sarah Mathews concluded that Amborella and water lilies are the first two branches on the family tree of flowering plants.

Flowers Other related pages: Sea Plants The Bee Plants and Flowers Top of Page Plants can be divided into two types: flowering plants and non-flowering plants. The are many flowering plants such as the rose, daisy, tulip and others. Non-flowering plants include coniferous trees such as the pine and spruce. They both follow a similar process to grow. Plants have both male pollen and female parts of the flower. Pollen from a plant is carried by the wind, or by insects, to fertilize the female parts of the plant. Once fertilized, a cone or seed is produced capable of creating a new plant. Wind Pollination Top of Page Many plants, such as grass, weeds and even large pine trees, rely on the wind for pollination. The pollen is small and light, allowing it to be blown by the wind. The pollen lands on other plants a fertilizes them. Insect Pollination Top of Page Worker bees collect pollen and nector from flowers which are used to create wax to build the hive. The queen bee creates the wax in her abdomen, which she uses to build chambers or cells where she lays her eggs.

112. Horticultural Inquiries Top Ten +1 Reasons Why flowering plants Fail To Bloom flowering plants typically undergo a juvenile period before they begin to produce flowers. http://www.umanitoba.ca/afs/hort_inquiries/miscellaneous/top_ten_fail_bloom.html

Top "Ten +1" Reasons Why Flowering Plants Fail To Bloom Maturity Temperature Light Planting Depth ... PHOTOS 1. Maturity 2. Light 3. Excess Nitrogen A plant that is grown in the correct exposure and exhibits healthy, green, vigorous growth but fails to set flowers could be subject to excess soil nitrogen. Excess nitrogen in the soil promotes a flush of green, vegetative growth at the expense of flowers. Flowering is essentially delayed or inhibited by the continuous production of new leaves and stems. It is one of the leading causes of poor fruit production . No flowers means no fruit. The effect of excess nitrogen on flowering is commonly seen in trees and shrubs that inhabit lawns or other grassy areas. High nitrogen fertilizers are applied to turf in order to encourage lush, green, vegetative growth. Although desirable for grasses and other foliage plants, nitrogen applications tend to have an adverse effect on flowering plants. A possible remedy is to water deeply and thoroughly to flush away the excess nitrogen and fertilize later with a high phosphorus or high potash formula. In fact, most tomato foods are ideal for fertilizing flowering plants. A related but opposite scenario, nutrient deficiency can also contribute to poor flowering. Nutrient deficiency is quite common in containerized plants whereby the roots have only a limited amount of soil area in which to explore and draw nutrients from. The nutrients inside containers are depleted rapidly and need to be replenished on a regular basis in order to maximize bloom time and flower quality.

116. Natural Perspective: Mosses (Phylum Bryophyta) And Allies Small green nonflowering plants. http://www.perspective.com/nature/plantae/bryophytes.html

Page 18 of 38 Natural Perspective The Plant Kingdom : Mosses and Allies (Last modified: 28 Sep 1997) Mosses and their allies are small green plants that are simlutaneously overlooked and deeply appreciated by the typical nature lover. On the one hand, very few people pay attention to individual moss plants and species. On the other hand, it is the mosses that imbues our forests with that wonderful lush "Rainforest" quality which soothes the soul and softens the contours of the earth. These wonderfully soft carpets of green are, in fact, Nature's second line of attack in its war against rocks. After lichens have created a foothold in rocks the mosses move in, ultimately becoming a layer of topsoil for higher plants to take root. The mosses also hold loose dirt in place, thus preventing landslides. Ecologically and structurally, mosses are closer to lichens than they are to other members of the plant kingdom. Both mosses and lichens depend upon external moisture to transport nutrients. Because of this they prefer damp places and have evolved special methods of dealing with long dry periods. Higher plants, on the other hand, have specialized organs for transporting fluid, allowing them to adapt to a wider variety of habitats. Bryophytes used to be classified as three classes of a single phylum

ABSCISIC ACID Abscisic acid is a plant hormone that inhibits growth, causes the abscission of leaves, induces dormancy, closes stomata, and triggers other phenomena in response to adverse conditions. ABSCISSION Abscission is the normal separation of a leaf , fruit, or flower from a plant. Abscisic acid is the plant hormone involved in abscission. ABSCISSION ZONE The abscission zone is the area at the base of leaf's petiole, a fruit stalk, or a branch in which the separation (abscission) layer develops. The disintegration of this layer causes a leaf , fruit, or flower to fall from a plant. Abscisic acid is the plant hormone involved in this process.
