Will a long-day plant (LDP) bear flowers after it was subjected to nights interrupted by flashing red light followed by far-red light? *
You are growing tomatoes and your plants are healthy and nearly one metre tall. Youworry that they might get blown over by the wind, so you decide to lend them extrasupport with a wire frame. You accidently break the growing tip off the top of one ofthe plants. After a few weeks, you notice that instead of growing tall like the otherplants, the plant with the broken tip has grown denser with thicker lateral shootsthan the other plants.
Question: Explain what signal transduction pathway has been impacted by the removalof the growing tip of this tomato plant and contrast this with what ishappening in the normal growing tomato plants (10 facts).
