Kinetics of upward bending response of gravistimulated snapdragon shoots

Recording of the gravitropic response

Navigation:
Essential for almost all experiments in an accurate way to measure the deflection of the shoot from the initial position. The angle of curvature during gravitropism can be measured in several ways. An easy and commonly used method to measure the angle is the use of a protractor. An accuracy of the order of 1o can be achieved using this method.
