A preliminary study on the internode length in durum wheats grown in Turkey

The variation for the internode length, in a population of 141 durum wheat comprising tall, semidwarf and dwarf genotypes was reported. Significant differences were found for all internodes except the fourth and fifth ones in each height group while there was non significant difference for the first internode within semidwarf group. It was also noted that the peduncle and penultimate internodes have contributed most of the variation to total stem length.
