It should be noted that spurs with conducting tissue of large diameter are sometimes produced from buds that were terminal to less than one cen- timeter of spur growth. In all such cases, however, the spurs are large, in accordance with the preced- ing data. Likewise, when spurs show relatively small conducting-tissue cylinders, they are usually light in weight even tho they arise from buds terminal to several centimeters growth. i86.
