Grain yield is a complex trait that determined by direct and indirect traits. To improve grain yield, it important to determine the relationships between these further explain source-sink concept, fifteen genotypes were evaluated explore not only variation association of primary secondary traits main crop but also ratoon crop. Above- ground parts are cut at harvest leaving stubbles roots as sources assimilates for growth development crops. Results this study indicated significant...
