Importance of agronomic traits in the individual selection process in sugarcane determined using the logistic regression

Abstract: The aim of this study was to evaluate the importance of agronomic traits during the selection of sugarcane (Saccharum spp.), as well as to evaluate the potential for using logistic regression and decision trees to identify the best genotypes. A total of 7,719 seedlings of 128 half-sib families were evaluated during the first test phase (T1), and 659 clones were selected for the second (T2). Logistic regression was applied to both populations. The number of stalks, bud prominence and length of the internode wer… Show more

“…Thus, this strategy could considerably reduce the weighing process in the field and optimize the selection procedure. Also, because every plot in the field is needed to be visited to have the predicting variables measured, other agronomic traits of the families may be recorded (Brasileiro, Peternelli, Silveira, & Barbosa, 2016b) and used as additional criteria to select these families.…”

“…Smut, caused by the fungus Sporisorium scitamineum, is an extremely important disease in sugarcane cultivation, since it can cause significant losses to productivity, being an important factor in the decision making at the time of selection. In the research done by BRASILEIRO et al, (2016), smut incidence was a trait that did not have much importance in the selection of the clones as the study was completed on another population in which the incidence of the disease was low due to the environmental conditions. Environmental factor influences the occurrence of diseases in the southern region of Brazil.…”

“…In visual selection, the rejected of a genotype involves a combination of different traits such as floral induction, presence of diseases, and sugar and fiber contents, which influence the decision (BRASILEIRO et al, 2016).

“…The advantage of this method is that it does not require the evaluation of individual plants in the experiment and instead indicates the number of individuals to be selected per family, automatically eliminating families with negative genotypic effects. Studies involving the use of the BLUPIS methodology emphasize the efficiency of the selection method in sugarcane (Brasileiro, Peternelli, Silveira, & Barbosa, 2016;Carvalho et al, 2014;Resende & Barbosa, 2006;Silva et al, 2015). Table 4 shows the classifications of the effects of the SCA (ordered for TPH) of the 15 best full-sib families for the following traits: brix, fiber (%), PCC, TCH (t ha −1 ), TPH (t ha −1 ), and TFH (t ha −1 ).…”
