Flowering phenology and reproductive allocation are important factors to adapt to the environment. The article studied the flowering phenology and reproductive allocation of Fagopyrum dibotrys. Fagopyrum dibotrys flowered from August to November, mainly in September, centralized flowering contributes to insects pollination and improves reproductive success; Fagopyrum dibotrys flowered 1 to 2 days for a single flower, 85 days for the population. Long鄄styled capitulum flowered 15 to 26 days, short鄄styled capitulum flowered 14 to 27 days, the difference is not significant; The flower number of the long鄄styled single capitulum is 26 to 131, the short鄄styled capitulum is 36 to 147, the difference is not significant. Flowering dynamic of F. dibotrys忆s long鄄styled and short鄄styled capitulum presented unimodal curve,long鄄styled and short鄄 styled capitulum both reached maximum 11days after flowering, was 7. 30% and 7. 20% respectively, and the two floral morphs maintained high synchronization of flowering, contributing to increase the reproductive adaptability. Pistil and stamens length exhibited very significant negative correlation in the same floral morphs, but the total length showed no significant difference, which showed that there is a trade鄄off relationship; Fagopyrum dibotrys忆 s vegetative organs and http: / / www.ecologica.cn reproductive organs biomass existed no significant difference between the long鄄styled and short鄄styled, while their floral biomass and plant biomass showed very significant difference. F. cymosum忆s floral biomass allocation ratio of the long鄄styled is significantly larger than the short鄄styled, but the total biomass showed no significant difference, which showed that there is a trade鄄off relationship in Fagopyrum dibotrys忆s vegetative growth and sexual reproduction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
