Abstract

The description of bud development presented here is based primarily on the findings of Hejnowicz and Obarska (1995) and related studies. The embryonic shoots of vegetative and reproductive buds are visibly easy to differentiate in winter. With the aid of a microscope, it is possible to differentiate between bud types some months earlier. For example, in Poland the differentiation of the bud type takes place sometime in June (unpublished data; Fig. 6.1).
