Title : A relationship between stalk elongation and earliness of ripening in sugarcane
Year of publication : 1999
Keywords : ; ;
Citation : Mamet, L.D.; Galwey, N.W.; A relationship between stalk elongation and earliness of ripening in sugarcane; 1999
Abstract : This study demonstrates a realationship between earliness of ripening and stalk elongation which could be useful in a sugarcane selection programme. Sixty-four sugarcane genotypes with contrasting ripening behaviour were grown in a quadruple-lattice design and ordinary logistic curves were shown to give the best fit between stalk height and time. Genotypes with early high sucrose contents gave logistic curves with earlier inflection points and steeper slopes at the point of inflection. The inflection point was shown to be a reliable indicator of time of ripening and it was suggested that stalk height per se could be condsidered as a selection criterion for earliness of ripening in sugarcane.

Citation : Wong Sak Hoi, L.; Autrey, L. J. C.; Deterioration in cane quality and its impact on factory performance; 1998
Abstract : The trends in cane quality in Mauritius from 1960 to 1996 are examined using data from one sugar estate which has the cleanest cane and practises cane trashing before harvesting, and two factories having a high level of extraneous matter with the cane. Th
