Embodiment Construction

[0025] In order to achieve the above objectives, it is particularly recommended to use a method of cutting and selecting stem segments containing at least one characteristic. The method according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a step of identifying at least one characteristic of a stem segment with a sensor; and separating the stem segment containing the characteristic from the stem segment not containing the characteristic by virtue of the response to the identification The step; characterized in that the sensor is selected from the group consisting of a pressure transducer sensor, a capacitive sensor, an ultrasonic sensor, an x-ray sensor, a magnetic sensor, and a microwave sensor.

[0026] According to the method of the present invention, the first step includes identifying at least one characteristic of the stem segment with a sensor. "Identifying at least one feature of each stem segment" should be interpreted as identifying one or more features of the st...

Abstract

The invention refers to a method of selecting stem segments with desired characteristics and more specifically the invention refers to a method of selecting stem segments of graminaceous plants (from the Gramineae / Poaceae family), such as plants of the Saccharum spp, including sugar cane. According to an embodiment of the invention, the method of selecting stem segments, comprises the steps of identifying at least one characteristic of each stem segment by a sensor; and separating the stem segments comprising the said characteristic from those which do not comprise the said characteristic, depending on the response of said identification means; characterized in that the sensor is selected from the group consisting of a pressure transducer sensor, a capacitive sensor, an ultrasound sensor, an x-ray sensor, a magnetic sensor, and a microwave sensor.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method of selecting stem segments with desired characteristics. The present invention particularly relates to a method of selecting stem segments of gramineous plants (Poaceae / Poaceae), such as plants of the genus Cane, including sugarcane. [0002] definition [0003] In the following description and appended claims, the following definitions are used: [0004] Stem: The part of the stem of the main stem or stem of a gramineous plant, such as the main stem of a plant, especially the main plant axis that can grow buds and twigs. [0005] Sett (propagation section): A stem section, cut stem or cutting with one or more nodes. [0006] Node: The position on the stem of a gramineous plant that can form buds or spores. [0007] Buds or spores: embryos, spores or spores of grasses. [0008] Germination / germination: new plants grow from buds. Background technique [0009] Gramineae (Poaceae / Poaceae) are usually formed from stems that cont...
