Description Not Available
Saccharum officinarum, more commonly referred to as noble cane, possesses attractive morphological
variation in rind colour, rind stripes and cane shape. In the present study, an interesting trait of short lopsided
internodes exhibited by some of the genotypes of S. officinarum was examined. Six S. officinarum
genotypes exhibited this trait in varying percentage of shoots and also in varying numbers i.e. single or
groups of two or more at one point, interspersed with normal internodes. Anatomical observations revealed
that the short internodes had a relatively shorter cell with meristematic activity as opposed to the longer
thick walled mature cells in normal internodes. This trait may have been lost due to selective planting of
canes with normal internodes. Thus, selective planting may need to be followed to maintain or prevent short
internode trait in the germplasm accessions.
