The same young cropping 'Regina' sweet cherry trees were foliar treated with prohexadione-calcium (Pro- Ca) in two consecutive years at a concentration of [ 125, 125 x 2, 250 ]-(A) and [ 250, 375, 500 ]-(B) mg ProCa l<sup>-1</sup>, respectively. The following year some trees from A-treatments were left untreated to observe carry-over effects (C). None of A-treatments influenced tree trunk, shoot extension and internode growth, whereas B-treatments reduced shoot extension and internode length, simultaneously increasing flower bud density, particularly by 500 mg ProCa l<sup>-1</sup>. There were no carry-over effects produced by C-trees, except some retardation in shoot extension. None of the treatments influenced the tree cropping level. Fruit diameter was reduced by A-treatments, but fruit shape (L/D ratio) and mass were reduced by treatments B, and such reduction was also exhibited by C-trees (residual effects).

ABSTRACTGermination success of Chlorocardium rodiei is low in large gaps. High light levels, however are beneficial for the survival of seedlings. (Partial) removal of cotyledons has a large negative impact on survival especially under low light conditions. Seedlings from large gaps are larger but not taller than those from the understorey, due to differential internode growth. Although growth of seedlings is improved by higher light levels caused for example by logging, great care should be taken with logging intensity, which may increase seed mortality.

A dwarf plant isolated from anther culture of a normal genotype of birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L. cv. Leo) has been isolated, characterized, and maintained as an in vitro shoot-tip culture. The dwarf condition is the result of a much shorter internode length when compared with a normal genotype in shoot tip culture. Dwarf shoots which are typically rosette respond to increased GA3 levels by increased internode growth. Normal genotypes are inhibited and eventually die as a result of increased levels of GA3 in the culture medium. This dwarf has the normal tetraploid chromosome number of 24, and although stable in shoot tip cultures since 1977, has not survived outside of in vitro shoot tip cultures.
