2. "Alliaria petiolata" type

Main root of the primary root system with adventitious buds. This type differs from the preceeding one by the bud bank. The species forms adventitious buds on hypocotyl and/or tap root. Sprouting may start in young plants, but fragmentation proceeds in old plants only, much in the same way as in the “Trifolium pratense” type

[other examples: Aristolochia clematitis, Linaria alpina, Viola pumila].
