Effect of thidiazuron on morpho-physiological parameters, juice quality and photosynthate translocation in sugarcane (Saccharum spontaneum x S. officinarum hybrids)*

Abstract

In our work on shootlet proliferation in sugarcane tissue culture, thidiazuron was effective at concentrations much lower than those required for most hormones and growth regulators and the effect of thidiazuron persisted for weeks after its application (Dhawan et al. 2004).
