Abstract

The influence of shade on the growth and development of Mikania micrantha H.B.K. was studied under glasshouse conditions. Shading significantly affected the vegetative growth dry-matter production leaf area and biomass partitioning of Mikania micrantha. Plants grew vigorously under 50 percents shade. With maximum shading (75 percents). Mikania micrantha showed the highest values of leaf weight ratio specific leaf area and leaf area ratio. Individual leaf assessment revealed that shading significantly increased the final leaf area duration of expansion and specific leaf area
