Abstract
Over two millenia, observers of plants have noticed that one part of a plant may influence or control the activities of another part (see, e.g., Wiesner 1871, Dostal 1967). There are diverse examples, such as axillary buds growing out when the main bud has been removed (Goebel 1900, Snow 1925), excision of seeds from fleshy fruit promoting their germination (Albertus Magnus, thirteenth century, see Wareing 1965), cutting off the coleoptile tip preventing coleoptile tropisms (Darwin and Darwin 1880), removal of the embryo blocking starch degradation in grains (Brown and Morris 1890), partial defoliation altering bud growth (Loeb 1918) and removal of reproductive structures delaying the senescence of leaves and stems (Molisch 1928).
