Abstract

The development of Nelumbo komarovii Grossh from seeds under artificial conditions has been studied. Five phases of N. komarovii morphogenesis are identified: the seed, the primary (main) shoot, the main-shoot system and anchoring shoots, curtain, and tuberiform structure. The phases of morphogenesis correlate with periods of ontogenesis and age-related stages of individuals.
