Abstract
The analysis of the quality indices in sugarcane plays a vital role in the process of refining sugarcane breeding, cultivation, and production management. The present investigation was conducted at Agricultural Research Station, Basanthpur-Mamidigi, Medak Dist., Telangana during 2016-2017 to study the quality parameters of twelve sugarcane clones. The field experiment was conducted with 12 varieties in randomized block design replicated thrice. The observations made from the study stated that varieties varied significantly for the quality parameters. Among the varieties, Co 8014, has recorded the highest sucrose and Commercial Cane Sugar (CCS) percent followed by Co 86032, Co C 671 and Co 95020. The variety, 97 R 129 has recorded the lowest sucrose and CCS, followed by 97 R 401, 85 R186, Co 99006 and 83 R 23. The Brix values were high for Co 86032 and low for 97 R 401. Similarly, Co 99006 and Co C 92061 showed high and low values, respectively for purity percentage. Further, it could be attributed that the clones Co 86032 and Co 95020 recorded the highest sugar and cane yields. Conversely, the clones 83 R 23 and 85 R 186 recorded the lowest sugar and cane yields. Higher cane yield, sucrose and CCS percent in varieties had resulted in significantly higher sugar yields.
