Plant Physiology 65:65-68 (1980) © 1980 American Society of Plant Biologists Photosynthesis As a Function of Short Day Induction and Gibberellic Acid Treatment in Bougainvillea "San Diego Red"Department of Environmental Horticulture, University of California, Davis, California 95616 Short day induction in Bougainvillea "San Diego Red" increases photosynthetic rates in mature leaves; gibberellic acid treatments, which inhibit flowering, cancel the short day effect. These results lend support of a nutritional hypothesis that suggests that in Bougainvillea assimilate supply to the reproductive axis increases before floral initiation and during flower development.
