Topic: Stolon


In the News (Wed 3 Dec 08)

  
  Nigrospora Stolon Rot   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
The disease appears to girdle the stolon (stem or runner) of St. Augustinegrass and deprive the stolon of water and nutrients.
The girdling of the stolon stops the movement of water and nutrients to the leaves.
New growth on the terminal end of diseased stolons is typically thin and yellow reflecting a limited supply of nutrients to the growing point.

 Stolon formation in perennial ryegrass may aid persistence
Stolon formation appears to be a regular morphological feature, which has distinct advantages in survival and maintenance of plant and tiller density in pasture.
However, stolon formation in ryegrass plants is normally restricted to locations where the plant is severely shaded, for example through physical burial of tillers by worm castings and stock treading, or through shading of tillers by other plants in the pasture (1,2,9).
The aim of the current study was to compare the extent of stolon formation in Impact with the perennial ryegrass cultivar ‘Yatsyn’ through the summer period and to investigate the role of stolons in the maintenance of pasture density and survival of plants in intensively grazed dairy pasture.

 Stolon   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
A stolon is a specialized type of horizontal above-ground shoot, a colonizing organ that arises from an axillary bud near the base of the plant.
The stolon differs from the typical vegetative shoot of that same plant in having much longer and, typically, thinner internodes, and the horizontal stolon also has a strong tendency to form adventitious roots at the nodes.
The stolon, connecting mother plant with each ramet, initially provides the pathway for a flow of nutrients and water to the new plantlet, or even some nutrients from the plantlet back to the mother plant, but that physical connection is eventually severed or becomes dysfunctional as the plantlet develops its nutritional independence.

The effect of soil-borne inoculum on *potato* stem and stolon attack in relation to yield and quality of the potato were investigated.
This seems debatable; the effect of stolon attack may be more important for yield than *potato* stem attack, but *potato* stem attack also affects growth of the *potato* plant.
Stolon infection delays *potato* tuber initiation and, as a result, *potato* tuber yield is slower to develop.

 Clover stolon growth within clover-rich patches and on the boundaries of patches with surrounding grass
At monthly intervals from May until September replicate stolons were marked in the centre and on the edge of patches; one stolon of each type was selected in each of 10 replicate circular patches and 10 replicate stolons were selected in a single large patch.
Initial total stolon length (to a branch or until disappearance into the ground) and length of the marked unit (node 3 to stolon tip) were recorded.
There was a negative relationship between sward height and stolon extension, with the greatest extension at the edge of patches where absolute sward height (and vertical height difference in small and medium patches) were less than in the patch centre.

The effect of soil-borne inoculum on stem and stolon attack in relation to yield and quality of the potato were investigated.
Stolon infection delays tuber initiation and, as a result, tuber yield is slower to develop.
Severe and very severe attacks of stems and stolons by soil-borne R. solani decreases fresh yield, dry matter yield and dry matter content of tubers, increases the proportion of deformed and small tubers, but have a negligible effect on haulm yield and stem number.

 Florida Entomologist, v. 79, n. 2, p. 188
Susceptibility of the cultivars to borer damage was influenced by stolon width, an important characteristic for E. loftini tunneling.
Excised stolons were transported to the laboratory and examined for evidence of E. loftini tunneling or living larvae.
Stalk or stolon tunneling in small-stemmed host plants such as bermudagrass, johnsongrass, Sorghum halepense (L.) Pers., rice, Oryza sativa L., and wheat, Triticum aestivum L., is longitudinal, usually causing dead hearts or heads, a result of larval feeding near the growing point (Browning et al.

 Results
Because all fights between stolon and fused mat cells result in a dead fused mat cell, the stolon colony quickly overwhelms the fused mat colony.
Here, the balance between the unfused mat colony's higher reproductive rate and the stolon colony's slight advantage in a fight is seen, as this particular dead-zone remains fairly stable between the colonies.
The border between the stolon and unfused colonies first shows the expected dead-zone, but it is quickly neutralized by the emergence of small buffers of neutral cells.

Stolons are slender stem-branches running horizontally away from the main plant, either above or below ground.
The larger plant at the left in the picture (it's about 8 inches tall) is the "mother plant." It has issued a stolon that has grown about six inches through the soil, then the stolon budded and from the new bud arose the smaller, younger plant at the right in the picture.
The stolons you see in the picture arose from the same general area on the plant as the roots but, again, they aren't roots.

 Trifolium repens
The stolons are the main perennating organs which spread to colonize bare spaces in the sward, their apices being the main sites for leaf production.
Stolon branching and lengths of petioles and internodes are strongly influenced by the amount and quality of the light penetrating the base of the sward.
Stolons survive drought longer than leaves and so recovery or survival is related to stolon growing point density (Brock and Kim, l994).

Zooids measure approximately 0.4 mm in height, and are connected to the stolon for only part of their length.
They are arranged in small clumps of 4 - 8 pairs and turn partially around the axis of the stolon at the distal (far) end.
The proximal (near) end of the stolon often remains bare.

 Effect of Apogee and Ponnax on Stolon Production and Yield of Florida-Grown Strawberry.
Stolons (runners) act as a sink for photosynthates and nutrients, reducing the amount of resources available for fruit production in an annual hill production system.
Stolon number and length were analyzed for each observation date.
This is a great disadvantage as the stolons are still acting as a sink for photosynthates but they grow close to the plant making detection and removal more difficult.

Assimilate movement in the phloem, as shown by tracer migration, was strongly polarised toward the tip of a large "C-treated stolon and slightly less polarised toward the tip of a small stolon.
Tracer movement to the parent stolon from a treated tiller appeared to be as great as or greater than movement to the tip of that tiller.
Darkening or partial defoliation of a stolon could induce the movement of assimilate from another treated stolon on the same plant, but the effect occurred regularly only with prolonged darkening or a number of defoliations.

Regression analysis was used to determine if stolon density was related to winter recovery, as it was observed that Yukon had both the highest recovery from winter injury and the highest stolon density.

This irregular stolon system is adherent to a substrate which, in this case, is the gastropod shell inhabited by hermit crabs (Braverman 1971).
Endothelial cells along the stolon lumen are sensitive to this shear stress (in mammalian vascular systems at least) and at some low threshold shear stress which reflects a low velocity of fluid transport, those cells may differentiate to form a polyp bud.
Single-polyp-single-stolon units were surgically isolated by severing all stolons connecting the chosen polyp to the colony so as to retain a segment of stolon about 2.7mm long with two blind ends with the polyp positioned near the center.

 Discussion and Conclusion
Note the thin region of dead cells (fl) which persists at the intersection of the two colonies; this region indicates active rejection resulting in the death of cells (fused mat cells, in this case).
The unfused mat colony grows at a higher rate than the stolon colony as a result of the presence of other mat cells increasing the probability of reproduction.
The unfused mat colony, being significantly larger, is able to slowly whittle down the resistant stolon colony.
