An efficient antioxidant system is associated with lower photosynthesis photoinhibition and greater tolerance to drought in sugarcane cultivars

The occurrence of seasonal droughts is one of the main factors that limit the sugarcane ratoon cycles, compromising sugarcane field longevity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the biochemical responses of sugarcane cultivars to drought stress in ratoon crop. Six cultivars were used: RB72910, RB...
