Studying Lords and Ladies, Arum Maculatum (L.)

Jones, Derek H. T.

Journal of Biological Education, 11, 4, 253-60, Dec 77

Historical uses of Arum maculatum (L.) are summarized. Temperature changes during spadix maturation, spathe uncurling in the presence of flower tissue, indol-3-y1 acetic acid, and gibberellic acid are investigated in the laboratory. Dilute solutions of both phytohormones cause significant spathe uncurling. Further investigations are suggested. (Author/MA)
