Abstract

Evaluation of sugarcane genotypes for morphological and quality Traits was conducted at the Sugarcane Research centre, Zadshahapur, SNSI Belagavi, Karnataka. The experiment was layout in RBD design with three replications during the years 2020-21(AVT I plant) and 2021-22 (AVT II Plant and Ratoon). Eleven mid late genotypes viz., Co 14005, Co 15005, Co 15006,
Co 15007, Co 15009, Co 15010, Co 15017, Co 15021, CoN 15071, CoSnk 15102 and PI 15131, and one early maturing genotype Co 11015 along with three standard checks (Co 86032, CoC 671 and Co 09004) were evaluated for cane yield (t/ha), NMC ('000/ha), stalk length (cm), stalk diameter (cm), single cane weight (Kg), sucrose %, Brix %, purity % and extraction %. Genotypes Co 15007, Co 15010, CoN 15071 and PI 15131 were best for the traits like cane yield, CCS yield, NMC, stalk length, stalk diameter, single cane weight and also quality character like purity and extraction percentage. The genotype Co 11015 recorded maximum 14.81%, 20.82% and 22.15% for CCS %, sucrose % and Brix % as compared to best standard Co 09004 (14.62%, 20.63% and 22.11% respectively).
