Improving Effi ciency of Sugarcane Genotype Selection in Florida
The Canal Point (CP) sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) breeding program has developed highyielding cultivars for the organic soils of South Florida, but cultivar development has not been as successful for sand soils in this region. Our objectives were to improve fi nal-stage (Stage 4) selection effi ciency of this program by assessing interactions among genotypes, soils, and locations and other source...
متن کاملScreening for Sugarcane Brown Rust in the First Clonal Stage of the Canal Point Sugarcane Breeding Program
Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) brown rust (caused by Puccinia melanocephala H. & P. Sydow) was first reported in the United States in 1978 and is still one of the great challenges for sugarcane production. A better understanding of sugarcane genotypic variation in response to brown rust will help optimize breeding and selection strategies for disease resistance. Brown rust ratings were scaled from ...
متن کاملThe effect of genotype, environment and time of harvest on sugarcane yields in Florida, USA
Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) is grown across different production environments and is harvested over a 5-month (midOctober–mid-March) period in Florida. While many studies have examined genotype environment interactions and their implications for breeding program design, knowledge is limited regarding interactions of genotype, environment and time of harvest and their implications for growers. Th...
متن کاملSeasonal Population Dynamics of Wireworms (coleoptera: Elateridae) in Florida
Wireworms are important insect pests of Florida sugarcane. The objective of this study was to determine the seasonal population dynamics of wireworms in Florida sugarcane. In a preliminary test, significantly more total numbers of wireworms were found under sugarcane stools than between stools in a row or between rows. Hence, the sugarcane stool was used as the sampling site for wireworms in th...
متن کاملCassava Breeding II: Phenotypic Correlations through the Different Stages of Selection
Breeding cassava relies on a phenotypic recurrent selection that takes advantage of the vegetative propagation of this crop. Successive stages of selection (single row trial-SRT; preliminary yield trial-PYT; advanced yield trial-AYT; and uniform yield trials UYT), gradually reduce the number of genotypes as the plot size, number of replications and locations increase. An important feature of th...
