Agricultural performance and genetic parameters for yield-related traits of sugar- and energy cane families derived from planned crosses

The forecast of a growing energy demand in the coming years has aroused particular interest in biomass for energy cogeneration, to diversify the energy matrix by using clean and renewable sources. To meet the new demands of the sugarcane industry, this study evaluated the agronomic performance and estimated genetic parameters for yield traits in sugar- and energy ca.. Read More»

Selection in sugarcane based on inbreeding depression

    A.A.C. de Azeredo, L.L. Bhering, B.P. Brasileiro, C.D. Cruz and M.H.P. Barbosa

This study aimed to evaluate the gene action associated with yield-related traits, including mean stalk weight (MSW), tons of sugarcane per hectare (TCH), and fiber content (FIB) in sugarcane. Moreover, the viability of individual reciprocal recurrent selection (RRSI-S1) was verified, and the effect of inbreeding depression on progenies was checked. The results were.. Read More»

Comparison between different selection indices in energy cane breeding

    A.A.C. de Azeredo, L.L. Bhering, B.P. Brasileiro, C.D. Cruz,L.C.I. Silveira, R.A. Oliveira, J.C. Bespalhok Filho, E. Daros

Sugarcane breeding programs have been adapting to a new market demand: aside from high sucrose yield per hectare, the sector needs new cultivars with higher fiber percentages. The selection of sugarcane clones based on phenotype alone is a complex task. The selected clones should display high performance in a series of yield- and quality-related traits. Selection in..
