- Intervention effect Varieties differed in total green weight and millable stalk responses to nutrient deficiencies.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen and phosphorus absence most strongly retarded growth and yield at 6.5 months.
- Intervention effect Complete nutrient treatment produced highest total green weight and millable cane yields.
- Intervention effect Without nitrogen, B. 37161 produced no millable cane.
- Intervention effect Without nitrogen, M. 336 produced no millable cane.
- Intervention effect Deficiencies of magnesium, sulfur, iron, manganese and boron had approximately equal mean yield effects.
- Observation Brix ranked H. 328560 above M. 336 above P.R. 980 above B. 37161.
- Observation Polarization ranked M. 336 above H. 328560 above P.R. 980 above B. 37161.
- Intervention effect Minus nitrogen produced the highest Brix and polarization.
- Intervention effect Minus potassium produced the lowest Brix and polarization.
- Association Height growth followed green millable stalk production across deficiencies.
- Intervention effect Complete nutrient treatment produced the most tillers except in P.R. 980.
- Association Minus phosphorus was associated with the poorest tillering.
- Intervention effect For complete nutrient treatment, H. 328560 had the lowest top to stalk ratio.
- Intervention effect Root weight was generally highest under complete nutrients.
- Intervention effect Root weight was lowest with nitrogen, phosphorus or iron absence.
- Observation Under complete nutrients, root weight ranked M. 336, B. 37161, P.R. 980 and H. 328560.
