Dear colleagues,

does anyone have ever tried to grow Tripsacum dactyloides (a
close relative of maize) in growth chambers. We have mimicked
Mexican climate in our growth chambers and the plants grow
nicely. Unfortunately they never form flower meristems.
Any idea to induce flowering is welcome.

Thank's,
Thomas Dresselhaus
