These extracts also initiated flower formation in Xanthium when they were supplemented with gibberellic acid. No flower formation was initiated in dluckweed (Lemna) or Xanthium by extracts from vegetative Xanthium. Extracts from vegetative plants supplemented ivith gibberellic acid did not initiate flowers in Xanthium or Lemna.
