Abstract
The intensity of the foliar respiration at the parasitized plants depends on several factors. In the same circumstances, under the same environmental conditions, different species have different respiratory intensities. The respiratory process in rye plants was observed from the beginning until the end of the growth period of rye and of Claviceps purpurea parasite as well. During this period the foliar respiration presents high variations from one stage to another. The presence of the parasite determines important changes related to the predominant alkaloid type of the Claviceps purpurea strains, which parasite the rye. The intensity of the respiratory process is also influenced by the stages of fungus’ life.

CYTOGENETIC OBSERVATIONS ON SOME IN VITRO REGENERANTS PROVIDED BY OVARIES OF BRASSICA OLERACEA L. VAR. CAPITATA
The cytogenetic studies on in vitro-derived plants (by means of direct or indirect gynogenesis) – 6 genotypes of Brassica oleracea L. var. capitata, aimed to evince if and to what extent this type of conventional culture...
MICROSPOROGENESIS AND THE MALE GAMETOPHYTE AT SOME TAXACEAE FAMILY TAXA
In this paper we point out the microsporogenesis and male gametophyte at some representatives of the Taxaceae family, Taxus L. and Torreya Arn. Both of them are dioecious plants. In Romania Taxus is cultivated and sponta...
