Evaluation productivity and susceptibility of some promising sugar cane varieties to some plant diseases and nematode under different row spacing [electronic resource].

Includes reference.

Three field trails (two plant crop and one 1st ratoon) were carried out at Mattana Agricultural Research Station, Qena Governorate in 2005/2006 and 2006/2007 growing seasons. Each trail included sixteen treatments represent the combination between four row spacing (70, 80, 90 and 100 cm between rows of sugarcane) and four sugarcane varieties (the commercial variety "G.T.54-9" three promising varieties .i.e., G.98-28, G.99-165 and Phil. 8013). Results showed that row spacing significantly affected stalk height, stalk diameter, purity %, cane and sugar yields and sugar recovery % in the 1st ratoon.
