Abstract

Fifteen clones obtained from callus derived plants in sugarcane cv. COC-671 were assessed in the field for morphologicaIand quality aspects including cane yield. Five of the clones exhibited significantly higher cane yield (82.2 kg/row) than control (51 kg/row). The observed superiority of these clones for cane yield over control was related either to higher number of internodes per plant or more number of shoots per meter length. Regarding quality of cane juice, only two clones had sucrose content above 200/. and commercial sugar cane higher than 14% as compared to 19.46 and 13.89% respectively, in the plants developed from sets. The reducing sugar lower than recorded in control was found in 10 clones, the lowest value being 0.102%.
