Breeding Potential and Multivariate Analyses of Morphological and Yield Traits in Industrial Sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.) Accessions in a Humid Tropical Agroecology

Macauley Asim Ittah & Ekemini Edet Obok · International Journal of Plant & Soil Science · 2019

Sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.) is propagated mostly by vegetative method. Although vegetative propagation conserves plant germplasm; it poses challenges in crop breeding. This field study assessed the breeding potential of twelve industrial sugarcane accessions in a humid t...
