Resumen El fosfito (Phi) es un bioestimulante que está recibiendo un interés creciente en la horticultura debido a que su aplicación en cultivos ha mejorado el rendimiento, calidad y la tolerancia a diversos tipos de estrés. Se evaluaron cuatro dosis crecientes de fosfito (0, 0.1, 0.3 y 0.5 mM) durante 30 días en condiciones in vitro en caña de azú...
The sugarcane ( Saccharum spp.) genome is one of the most complex of all. Modern varieties are highly polyploid and aneuploid as a result of hybridization between Saccharum officinarum and S. spontaneum . Little research has been done on meiotic control in polyploid species, with the exception of the wheat Ph1 locus harboring the ZIP4 gene ( TaZIP4...
Sugarcane, the world's most harvested crop by tonnage, has shaped global history, trade and geopolitics, and is currently responsible for 80% of sugar production worldwide1. While traditional sugarcane breeding methods have effectively generated cultivars adapted to new environments and pathogens, sugar yield improvements have recently plateaued2. ...

The World Collection of Sugarcane and Related Grasses, maintained at the USDA-ARS in Miami, FL, is one of the largest sugarcane germplasm repositories in the world. However, the genetic integrity of the Saccharum spp. germplasm in this collection has not been fully analyzed. In this study, we employed a single-dose SNP panel to genotype 901 sugarca...
Climate change is expected to have important consequences for sugarcane production due to global warming, changes in precipitation patterns, and changes in the frequency of extreme weather events. A key application of crop growth simulation models is to help understand and predict the effects of and interactions between, climate, soil, and manageme...

Understanding crop domestication provides a basis for ongoing genetic improvement of crops, especially in the utilization of wild crop relatives as a source of new variation and may guide the domestication of new crops. The Asia Pacific region is home to most of the world's human population and is a region in which many important crops were domesti...
Sugarcane crops typically have a high fertiliser nitrogen (N) input, with low N recovery efficiencies. Nitrogen is essential to crop productivity, but excess application can have negative environmental consequences. Despite the importance of coordinating N fertiliser input with crop N requirements, certain components of the sugarcane plant are typi...
Sugarcane production is carried out in the fields surrounding 49 sugar mills, where there is heterogeneity of soils at the parcel level, which affects the productive potential of established cultivars. The objective was to evaluate the biomass, the leaf area index (IAF) and the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) of the CP 72-2086 and Mex...
Context: Cover crops in intercropping systems have a high potential to manage weeds in tropical agroecosystems as an herbicide alternative. However, it still needs to be better investigated in sugarcane cropping systems. Objective: This study assesses the weed control ability of cover crops in sugarcane intercropping systems depending on crop manag...
