Abstract
The phenology and growth of culms of Muli bamboo ( Melocanna baccifera ) were studied in the Hailakandi district of Barak Valley in North-East India. The culms emerge during the months of August and September, and the growth curve is S-shaped. The growth continues for a period of 245 days with rapid growth attained after 45 days. The leae ng pattern is characterized by periodic growth leaf-exchange type. The adaptive strategy of this growth pattern is discussed in the context of restoration of degraded lands.
