Conteúdo: | The changes that occur in the shoot apex of the banana, as it passes from the vegetative to the flowering stage, are described. The crucial events occur well before floral primordia are evident, and they require a redistribution of activity in the various growing regions. The vegetative shoot apex is in a central depression in the rhizome; there is virtually no internodal growth in the axis, the most active growth is in the leaf bases; vegetative buds do not form in the leaf axils but only appear adventitiously far from the tip of the shoot. With the onset of flowering this is changed; growth in the axis itself, previously suppressed, occurs and flower buds arise as primordia in the axils ofsubtending bracts. The bracts do not show the marked growth in their bases which is so characteristic of leaves.
