Sugarcane is a major cash crop of the world and occupies
significant position in agricultural economy of Pakistan Study on
correlation and path coefficient analysis on ratoon crop for cane
yield and yield related traits in 20 accessions of sugarcane
(Saccharum officinarum L.) was conducted in the field of the
Department of Plant Breeding and Genetics, University of
Agriculture, Faisalabad, during the 2008-09.Analysis of variance
indicated highly significant differences among the accessions for
all the traits. Among the traits plant height, leaf area, dry
matter contents, bagasse weight and cane yield had the positive and
significant correlation with brix value at genotypic level.
Molecular markers are useful for assessment of variation and
phylogenetic relationships. Out of 30 fragments amplified with 15
primers used among the 10 sugarcane somaclones and a parent plant,
only 3 bands were polymorphic while rest of the 27 bands were
monomorphic. Therefore, it may be concluded from the present
results that SSR markers can be used for the identification of
somaclonal variation and the relationship between parents and
somaclones.
