The research was conducted at Sago Plantation Site located in Pembuniang Village, West Malangke Sub-district, North Luwu Regency from September to December 2017. The first observation was made at 16-month after sucker transplanting in September 2017, the second in November 2017. To determine statistical differences between the sucker weight of 1-3 kg and 3-6 kg, T-Test (Independent Sample T-Test) was used and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was used to determine the relationship between the leaf growth characters. The results show the suckers with weight of 3-6 kg grow better than that of 1-3 kg as indicated by the number, width and length of the leaflets, and the number of leaves and rachis length. Sucker with 3-6 kg weight have a closer relationship between variables. ## Keywords - Sucker - Transplanting - Stage (stratigraphy) - Biology - Rosette (schizont appearance) - Principal component analysis - Horticulture - Botany - Mathematics - Statistics - Sowing - Anatomy - Immunology - Paleontology --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
