Figure 3. Mature internode lengths in each of the four planting dates of 2003 and 2004. The beginning (i.e., first) internode, which is located between the cotyledonary node (V0) and unifoliolar node (V1), is symbolized by the leftmost solid-fill section of each bar. Thereafter, alternating open and solid sections of each bar symbolize even- and odd-numbered internodes, whose length in each bar is a mean of two plants, 14 cultivars, and four replicates (i.e., n = 112). For comparability, thin lines connect the same internode across the four planting dates.
