Descrizione Genetic Variability In Sugarcane (Saccharum spp. Complex)
Genetic variability, correlation, path analysis and genetic divergence were studied in a set of 39 genotypes of sugarcane (Saccharum spp. complex) grown in a randomized block design with two replications at the Main Sugarcane Research Station, Navsari Agricultural University, Navsari during 2011-12.The genotypes CoN-05071, CoSnk-6104, 2008N-736 and 2008N-558 gave highest cane yield as well as genotypes CoN-05071, 2008N-864, 2008N-736 and Co-99004 gave high sugar yield and exhibited desirable performance for yield and sugar contributing characters. Also they were resistant to red rot and wilt hence these genotypes may be utilized in hybridization programme for development of superior hybrid clones having cane and sugar yield potential along with resistance against red rot and wilt. After rigorous evaluation of these genotypes, across the various environments, locations and year¿s superior clones may be identified and isolated for its commercial exploitation.
