Abstract (AB)In the two commercial varieties S 17 and M351/57 and also in S. spontaneum var. 51 NG 2, a minimum number of mature internodes is necessary for floral induction, although varietal differences were observed. Old canes with a high number of mature internodes failed to be induced, suggesting an optimum number of internodes for induction. Absence of flowering in the commercial varieties at one site was associated with high maximum day temperatures.
