  • Abstract
    Based on the theory of difference equation and the limit ¿2 of phyllotaxis modeling of alternate plants, we inversely obtained an opposite plant´s phyllotaxis modeling. It should be a novel hypothesis at the opposite phyllotaxis modeling (HOM) that the limit angle of the opposite plant´s phyllotaxis modeling is ¿ ¿2 based on the theory of analogy. Form 1/2 of the leaf number is Lagerstroemia limii, L. indical etc.; form 1/3 of the leaf number is toward the south-east + north-west and north-east + south-west, for example, Vinca majos, V. majos cv. `Variegata´ etc. and it is not easy to find them. The form 2/8 of the leaf number is toward the west-east + north-south and it is very easy to find them, for example, Buxus sinica, Jasminum mesnyi etc.
