Yield components as indicators of drought tolerance of sugarcane Componentes de produção como indicadores de tolerância à seca em cana-de-açúcar

Water deficit is one of the major factors limiting the production of sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.). A study of the effects of limited water condition on yield components and their relationship with productivity can aid breeding programs in selecting for high yielding genotypes under this cond...
