Widely distributed genus of annual or perennial and often climbing herbs.
1Vicia hirsuta.-Thisspecies bears the smallest flowers of any British leguminous plant.
2Vicia faba: circumnutation of the same epicotyl as in Fig.
3Vicia faba: tracks left on inclined smoked glass-plates, by tips of radicles in growing downwards.
4None of these vbs genes was required for symbiotic N2 fixation on peas or Vicia.
5Vicia faba: circumnutation of young epicotyl, traced in darkness during 50 hours on a horizontal glass.
6This movement of the radicle has been described in Brassica, Aesculus, Phaseolus, Vicia, Cucurbita, Quercus and Zea.
7In three of the genera, namely Vicia, Amphicarpaea, and Voandzeia, the cleistogamic flowers are produced on subterranean stems.
8Vicia sativa (Leguminosae).-Protectedand unprotected plants produced an equal number of pods and equally fine seeds.
9An analogous fact with respect to the sweet excretion from the stipules of Vicia sativa has been already given.
10Vicia faba.-Radiclesof this plant were extended horizontally either over water or with their lower surfaces just touching it.
11The tips of 6 vertically dependent radicles were touched once with dry caustic, in the manner described under Vicia faba.
12Vicia faba: radicle, rectangularly bent at A, after the amputation of the tip, due to the previous influence of geotropism.
13Vicia faba: circumnutation of leaf, traced from 7.15 P.M. July 2nd to 10.15 A.M. 4th.
14Vicia root micronucleus assay was used to determine the clastogenicity of water samples from Xiaoqing River that passes through Jinan City.
15Vicia faba.-Thetips of 13 radicles were coated with the grease for a length of 2 mm.
16Vicia faba: circumnutation of a radicle, at first pointing vertically upwards, kept in darkness, traced on a horizontal glass, during 14 hours.
