    The promotion and delay of flowering
    (1979) Pollock, JS
    Several aspects of promoted flowering and delayed flowering were examined in small experiments at Meringa. These have application in the controlled flowering of parent varieties to facilitate a greater range of parent combinations. Results from some experiments are inconclusive and suggest further research. A useful collection of papers on flowering in sugar cane is contained in the Proceedings of the 11th ISSCT Congress, p505-545
