Index of Flowering ( Index – V)

1. Index of Flowering (Index – V)

2. The original paper on the Flowering Indexwas published by Máthé, Ákos (1977):Az Adonis vernalis L. virágzásáról. (On the flowering of Adonis vernalis L.)Herba Hungarica, 16(1), pp. 35-42.

3. Index of Flowering used in the phenological investigations III - I Index V= I + II + III I = II = III =

4. Main applications of the Flowering Index 1. Characterization of the course of flowering of species and cultivars, 2. Comparison of the flowering of plant individuals, populations, species, cultivars, etc. = Identification of simultaneously flowering cultivars to be used as pollen donor cultivars, = To facilitate agricultural plant protection activity at the period of flowering, = Data are suitable to be included in the data- banks of plant collections, gene banks, etc. = Application in production biological studiesto characterize the phenophase of flowering,etc.
