“…This result can be explained by the fact that the plant presents greater vigor, which allows a greater accumulation of sucrose in its stems. The variation of Pol can affect the sugar´s quality and even alcohol´s, Ekpélikpézé et al (2016) stated that this variation is an important factor to choose the best variety, since they easily adapted to different production systems, their genetic potential is expressed (Tyagi and Naidu, 2016). …”

An alternative to the control of sugarcane borer is the choice of the more resistant varieties that adapt themselves to different production systems, guarantying a better productivity. This work aimed to evaluate technological parameters of sugarcane varieties attacked by Diatraea saccharalis. The experiment was implemented in a randomized 2x9-factorial scheme, from 2 different cultivation cycles, 2016 and 2017, with 9 varieties of sugarcane: CTC-9001; CT04-6043; CTC-7; CTC-22; CTC-25; CTC-9003; RB97-5952; RB96-6928 e RB85-5453, with 4 repetitions, 36 plots in total. At the end each cultivation cycle (2016 and 2017), it was evaluated the following parameters: tons of sugarcane´s stem per hectare (TSH); percents of attacked stems (%AS); Pol percents in broth (%Pol); percents of sugarcane´s fiber (%Fiber); percents of purity in broth (%Purity); Brix value of broth (°Brix); and total-recoverable sugar per ton of sugarcane (TRS). The varieties CT046043 and CTC7 had lower values of fiber and higher incidence of borer. The presence of sugar cane drill reduced the quality and quantity of sugarcane stalks. The variation of 10% in fiber content in sugarcane caused a 71% difference in the incidence of Diatraea saccharalis.

“…Recently, an ethnobotanical study was conducted in the production zones and helped to understand the on farm management of the existing diversity and identify production constraints and farmers' preference criteria (Ekpelikpezé et al, 2015). Physicochemical analysis was also carried out to support decision making with regard to the use of the cultivars (Ekpélikpézé et al, 2016b).…”

A b s t r a c t A r t i c l e I n f oIn Benin, sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.), is both a food security and cash crop neglected by scientific research and development programs. To assess its diversity at national level, 89 farmer-named cultivars were collected from different production zones, planted in completely randomized bloc design with three repetitions and characterized using 15 qualitative and 10 quantitative morphological parameters. Data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics and multivariate analysis. Among the qualitative traits, five (color of the stipule, leaflet cover, pubescence of the leaves, external color and split of the stem) presented high variability. Among the stem colors recorded, black (49.44%), red (14.49%) and yellow (13.48%) were the most represented. Apart the leaves length, all of the quantitative traits considered exhibited high variability hence indicating the possibility of improvement of the crop using local germplasm to respond to farmers and consumers' preferences and needs. Correlation matrix revealed strong relationships between different quantitative traits. Both principal component analysis (PCA) and cluster analysis grouped the 89 cultivars into four morphological groups with different characteristics. Some putative duplicates were identified and for their certification the use of molecular markers such as SSRs or advanced techniques such as GBS were recommended.
