	Bamboo Growth and Development (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		The life span of leaves of monopodial bamboo is no more than 2 years (2465; 2761) whereas that of leaves of sympodial bamboo can extend to about 6 years (1733; 2747).
		In monopodial bamboo, leaf age on culms of a specific age is very similar, whereas in sympodial bamboo it varies greatly.
		In bamboos in tropical climates, the drop in photosynthesis rate during January and February is not as pronounced as for bamboos in temperate/cold climates or it is nonexistent.

	Bamboo Soil Management (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		Bamboos are categorized into monopodial (running) and sympodial (clumping and generally tropical) types according to the morphology of their (leptomorph and pachymorph) rhizomes.
		Age of all leaves on a culm of a particular age is the same (either 1 year or 2 years) in monopodial bamboos, whereas that in sympodial bamboos is variable (on average 2-5 years).
		Monopodial bamboos shed only their 2-year-old leaves every year, which can cause a dramatic decrease in leaf area, photosynthesis, and consequently shoot/culm production.

	Royal Horticultural Society - RHS Publications: Orchid Review
		A literature survey reveals that branching of the vegetative shoot in monopodial orchids is rarely noticed even though they have a number of axillary buds.
		Moreover, branches of vandaceous monopodial orchids are often referred to inappropriately as offshoots or ‘keikis’.
		Monopodial orchids with terete leaves tend to branch freely.

	Monopodial - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Orchids with monopodial growth habits grow upward from a single point.
		The word Mono-podial is derived from Greek meaning having one foot.
		However, with some monopodial species, the stem (the rhizome) might fork into two, but for all monopodial orchids this is not necessary for continued growth, as opposed to orchids with sympodial growth.

		Monopodial Orchids: Monopodial orchids have a single, continuously elongating axis that enables the plant to grow in a trailing fashion over supporting plants or to form large, dense masses of vegetation.
		The monopodial stem is rarely adapted to water conservation however, it is capable of persisting indefinitely.
		Unlike monopodial orchids, orchids with sympodial growth have a determinate type of growth whereby, after the production of a certain number of leaves, growth abruptly stops or is terminated by an inflorescence.

	Repotting Plants
		In the case of monopodial plants like phalaenopsis or vanda, which only have a single growth that will bloom again and again, look for the emergence of new leaves and roots as your signal.
		For monopodial plants, select a pot that is about one- to two inches in diameter smaller than the total leaf span of the plant.
		For monopodial plants, center a mound of medium in the pot, making it tall enough that the plant can be placed right on top of it.

		The term itself, as originally conceived, suggested, incorrectly, that species, such as Shibataea kumasaca, with its "monopodial rhizomes" and tillering culms possessed both rhizome types.
		However, if the terms amphipodial, sympodial, and monopodial are applied more narrowly and authentically, referring only to branching habit, rather than to rhizome type, then the term amphipodial is both useful and valid.
		In monopodial branching, a single, dominant stem, or axis, gives rise to secondary branches, or axes.

		To characterize a shoot, its type of branching and its surface (smooth, hairy, with or without grooves, round or squared) is used, as well as the ratio of heights to diameter.
		Monopodial branching exists, if a continuous main shoot has feeble apical shoots.
		Sympodial branching is given, if apical shoots of different generations exist at the same time since the apical meristem of each sympodial branch has either died or is differentiated into a flower, a thorn or a tendril and has thus lost its ability to grow.
