Abstract
It is proposed that the information about plant macrostructure (phyllo taxis) is uniformly encoded by a polymeric molecule composed of a fixe d number of repeating units. Based on this hypothesis, a set of nonemp irical invariants of higher plants was constructed, and the calculated invariants were compared with known experimental invariants. Generali ty of the description of plant morphogenesis by a set of calculated in variants is demonstrated.
