Abstract
At the onset of flowering, in most of the plants the shoot apical meristem (SAM) modify into inflorescence meristem (IM) which further switches to floral meristem (FM). In most of the flowering plants the SAM is totally consumed for the production of flowers thus the reproductive shoots doesn’t continue further into the vegetative shoots. But the general observation of pineapple enlighten the focus on the trend that he SAM is either not totally consumed or FM is again converted to SAM resulting in the production of pup at the top of inflorescence axis.
