Abstract

Apple and pear trees bear two types of shoots, namely, short and long, a study of which is important from the point of view of floral initiation (3). The short shoots (spurs or branchy-blasts) grow for 3-5 weeks after bud burst solely by extension of internodes already formed in the resting bud, whereas long shoots (mesoblasts) are those in which shoot apex during growth initiates new internodes and leaf primordia.
