ABSTRACT

Estimates of correlation coefficients and direct and indirect effects were obtained among
cane yield and its component traits for 32 sugarcane genotypes grown in three environments.
Cane yield was found significantly correlated with single cane weight, millable canes per clump
and cane height. High direct effect of millable canes per clump and single cane weight were
observed for cane yield. Number of millable canes per clump and single cane weight emerged as
the most important traits influencing cane yield. Apart from these traits due emphasis should be
given to cane height, internode length and juice quality traits while selecting clones suitable for
late planting conditions
