Inorganic elements are essential for growth and development of the plants grown either in vivo or in vitro. During in vitro differentiation, the minerals are absorbed from the basal medium and used during cell proliferation and differentiation. There are number of reports to understand mineral metabolism in sugarcane with reference to productivity studies, crop logging, mineral deficiencies and physiological role in sugar metabolism. During present investigation, major and minor elements are analyzed from the three stages (IC, IM and IR) of differentiating tissues.
