Abstract
The seedling of Pongamia glabra L. generates some simple leaves before producing the first compound leaf. The “regenerates” arising from decapitated adult plants also show the same sequence of “phyllogenesis”, i.e. generation of an initial instalment of simple leaves followed by compound-leaf-production.
