“…In sugarcane, studies evaluating the genetic diversity have been conducted with the use of quantitative and qualitative traits, and/or with molecular markers (Da Silva et al, 2008;Oliveira et al, 2009;Duarte Filho et al, 2010;Dutra Filho et al, 2011;Sindhu et al, 2011;Santos et al, 2012;Santchurn et al, 2012;Perera et al, 2012). In these works, a high degree of genetic similarity between the genotypes has been found, resulting in the formation of few groups.…”
