Sugarcane, a complex polyploid propagated
asexually through setts, generally has one bud
at each node. Abnormal multiple buds are
frequently observed in germplasm collection
which are characterized by the presence of two
or more buds at a single node. It is universally
accepted that this trait is not genetically inherited.
Yet another abnormality which yields multiple
shoots at the nodes is adventitious shoot
formation. Hormones or minor elements as the
physiological cause, ontogenic modification,
arresting of apical dominance and insect
infestation are the plausible explanations for this
phenomenon. In this communication, we report
the presence of four independent buds in the
progeny of a cross involving Co 62175 and
appearance of adventitious shoots in some of the
germplasm clones. The consistent occurrence of
adventitious shoot formation in a limited number
of clones even after 10 cycles of vegetative
propagation indicated some relation to the
genetic makeup of the clones.
