Desmodium motorium

Film 8 Oscillatory movements of leaflets of Desmodium motorium (endogenous, without stimuli). Filming took 25 minutes. Period of oscillation - approx. 2 minutes.

Film 18 Oscillatory movements of leaflets of Desmodium motorium during ca. 80 minutes of filming in constant light.

Film 10 Oscillatory movements of leaflets of Desmodium motorium during one day. Turning off the light approx. 21:08, turning on approx. 04:08. Also visible is the daily rhythm of nyctinastic leaf folding movements (around 19:00-20:00 and leaf elevation around 03:00-04:00) and the anticipation of darkness.

Film 20 Oscillatory movements of leaflets of Desmodium motorium during one day in constant light. Also visible is the endogenous circadian rhythm of the leaf folding movements (around 19:00-20:00) and leaf elevation (about 03:00-04:00).
