Abstract/ Executive Summary:

The morphological! development of wheat plant has been studied. Six growth phases and twelve growth stages have been recognized in the life cycle of wheat plant. The significance of these phases and stages of growth has been discussed. The calendar of morphological development of the wheat cultlvar Sonalika has been presented, The cultivar Sonatika which was sown on December 4. 1985 required 0-8 days after sowing to complete its germination and emergence. 9 to 30 days for tillering, 31 to 65 days for stem elongation. 66 to 72 days for heading. 73 to 79 days for flowering and 80 to 107 days for the completion of grain formation and ripening phases. respectively.

Keywords: Growth. Development. Wheat

Location: BAU, Mymensingh

Start Date: 04-12-1985

End Date:

Program Area: Crop-Soil-Water Management

Commodity: Wheat

Objectives:

To study the developmental phases, the growth stages and their duration in a wheat plant, cultivar Sonalika

Methodology:

Seeds of the wheat cultivar Sonolika were collected from the wheat Research Centre BARI Joydebpur. The seeds were sown in a well prepared plot on December 4, 1985, at the Bangladesh Agricultural Univ.irsitv Farm. Mymensingh. Every alternate day five plants were collected. The plants were first observed for their external morphology and thereafter their growing points, the shoot apices were dissected out under microscope and their morphology were studied. On the basis of these observations. the main development events of the plants were grouped into growth phases. Each of the growth phases was then sub divided into one or more growth stages.
