Vegetative phenology of alpine plants at Tateyama Murodo-daira in central Japan

Abstract: The vegetative phenology of 29 alpine species, including herbaceous and woody summergreens and evergreens, was investigated. Summergreen species initiated and completed leaf growth earlier than evergreen species. The green period of leaves in summergreen plants was determined largely by the time of growth initiation. Early initiation of growth in summergreen plants contributes to the increase in photosynthetic carbon gain. Early cessation of growth in summergreens is advantageous for the growth in the followin… Show more

“…(Yoshie 2008b). These herbs, including sedges and grasses, show late growth cessation and shallow dormancy compared with herbs having determinate growth habit in alpine regions (Bliss 1971;Yoshie 2008bYoshie , 2010 and in temperate regions (Yoshie and Yoshida 1989;Yoshie 1995). In the natural habitat of alpine plants, low summer temperatures may limit the leaf expansion period, and warm years may lengthen the leaf expansion period.…”

“…In the natural habitat of alpine plants, low summer temperatures may limit the leaf expansion period, and warm years may lengthen the leaf expansion period. Schizocodon soldanelloides f. alpinus, an alpine evergreen chamaephyte that develops inflorescences from the leaf axils (Yoshie 2008b), has a higher number of leaves and longer leaf expansion period in a warm year compared with a cool year (Yoshie 2010). Fauria crista-galli plants have aerial shoots that develop inflorescences from leaf axils (Yoshie 2008b).…”
