You purchase two identical houseplants and place them side by side on your windowsill. you water both plants equally. you leave one plant, plant a, alone, but you inject florigen into the cells of the shoot apical meristem of plant b. what would you expect to occur?

Both plants will have equal conditions in these experiments including the water and other components except florigen. Florigen is a hormone that is responsible for triggering the flowering in a plant. It acts in the apical meristem of growing tips and buds.

As it is injected in the apical meristem of the plant so it will act on the plant b and flower would be induced at its apical meristem. Once the flower will be gone plant will grow taller but only from the lateral meristem of the plant b.

hello! if you would like i could share a research essay i did a month or two ago!
