‘C90-167’: new sugarcane cultivar (Saccharum spp.) recommendedfor commercial exploitation
Main Article Content
Abstract
At present, it is necessary to obtain new sugarcane cultivars with
high sugar potential and adapted to several harvest cycles, so the
present work aimed to show the agro-sugar characterization of the new cultivar ‘C90-167’, obtained and recommended by Estación Territorial de Investigaciones
de la Caña de Azúcar de Villa Clara, belonging to Instituto de Investigaciones de la Caña de
Azúcar, for its commercial exploitation. This cultivar went through the selection scheme of the
genetic improvement program of the breeding institution, from the initial stages of posture
lots, clonal lots and replicated experiments. The cultivar ‘C90-167’ stands out for its high
agricultural yield and satisfactory sugar content in relation to the control cultivars ‘C86-12’ and
‘C1051-73’. It is necessary to emphasize, as an important attribute, the resistance presented in
artificial foci of infection to the main pests and diseases of economic importance of the crop. It
is recommended for planting in both long spring and cold cycles in carbonate-padded brown
soils.
