Sugarcane breeders aim to increase sugarcane yield by understanding the traits that contribute to it. A study analyzed 226 sugarcane plants to see how different traits affect yield. They found that the number of millable cane, stalk weight, and shoot count are key factors for higher cane yield. The number of millable cane has the biggest direct impact on yield, followed by stalk weight. This means selecting plants based on these traits can lead to higher sugarcane yield.
