“…Sugarcane breeding programs promoted, in recent decades, significant increase in sucrose production by means of the greatest amount of culms per hectare, with little or no change in the concentration of sugar in the culm (Jackson, 2005). The main stage of plant development involved in sucrose accumulation is the ripening, physiological process involving the formation of sugars in the leaves and their transport and storage in the culm (Watt et al, 2014), when the plants almost cease vegetative growth.…”

“…Family selection can be adopted when the selection traits have low heritability, like sugarcane productivity traits (JACKSON;MCRAE, 1998MCRAE, , 2001). This procedure consists of selecting the best families and rejecting the worst because higher genotypic value families tend to be more effective and indicate a higher proportion of promising genotypes (RESENDE; BARBOSA, 2006).…”

“…Na quarta fase foram desenvolvidas as atuais cultivares de cana-de-açúcar a partir de cruzamentos entre os híbridos obtidos na fase anterior e na de nobilização. Como conseqüência, houve um forte efeito de gargalo no desenvolvimento das canas modernas, pois elas são derivadas essencialmente de poucos genótipos parentais (ARCENEAUX, 1965;ROACH, 1989;JACKSON, 2005 (AGUIRRE Jr., 1936;ANDRARDE, 1985;DANTAS, 1960;DEERR, 1921;EDGERTON, 1955;STEVENSON, 1965 -JANABI et al, 1993;Da SILVA et al, 1993;; cruzamentos interespecíficos entre S. officinarum "Louisiana Purple" (2n = 80) x S. robustum "Mol 5829" (2n = 80) (MUDJE et al, 1996;GUIMARÃES et al, 1999) ou entre S. officinarum "Green German"…”

“…No entanto, estudos recentes têm demonstrado haver uma quantidade considerável de diversidade nesta espécie (JANNOO et al, 1999b;SELVI et al, 2003;BROWN et al, 2007;JACKSON;McINTYRE, 2006, ALWALLA et al, 2006 e que as observações iniciais parecem ter sido muito mais um problema relacionado ao baixo número de acessos avaliados do que a uma baixa diversidade de fato. Análises moleculares feitas com diferentes marcadores no germoplasma de S. spontaneum têm mostrado que esta espécie possui os níveis mais elevados de diversidade intra-específica quando comparada com as demais espécies do gênero (GLASZMANN; LU; LANAUD, 1990;TANKSLEY, 1992;SOBRAL et al, 1994;NAIR et al, 1999;PAN et al, 2004;SHEJI et al, 2006).…”
