Abstract excerpt
Intrinsic transpiration efficiency (i TE), the ratio of photosynthesis (A) to stomatal conductance (gs ), is considered a useful trait for improving productivity; however, higher i TE with high A is more desirable than that with low gs . This study dissects i TE of 20 sugarcane genotypes to understand its relationship with total dry matter (TDM) and cane yield (TCH) under irrigated and rainfed conditions. Water...
