Following the star : inflorescence heliotropism
Plant movements in response to directional solar radiation, known as “heliotropism” are frequently observed in nature. Although there is a considerable amount of literature on these movements in vegetative organs, knowledge about heliotropic responses in flowers and inflorescences is relatively limi...
