Abstract
Investigation was carried out at the Karnataka Institute of Applied Agricultural Research (KIAAR), Sameerwadi, during January 1998 to January 1999 to know the character association and path coefficient analysis in sixty sugarcane (saccharum officinarum L.) genotypes. Among twenty characters, single cane weight, number of millable canes per plot, leaf area and germination percent had positive and highly significant association with cane yield as well as with commercial cane sugar yield. Path coefficient analysis of cane yield per plot revealed that commercial cane sugar per plot and commercial cane sugar percent at harvest along with dry matter and number of internodes were the major contributors to cane yield per plot, where as sugar yield was largely depended on both cane yield and sucrose percent.
