Abstract: For sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) crops, the effects of an environmental stress, especially water deficiency, may cause severe productivity reduction, inferring negatively in the sugarcane industry. The tolerance of two sugarcane cultivars to a lack of water was made by analyzing the levels of the osmoprotectors, trehalose and free proline, and the biometrical variables of their initial growth. Biochemical and physiological responses of the cultivars, when subjected to water stress, were assayed to determine how … Show more

“…was greater in drought tolerant sugarcane cultivars (Q77N1232, N11, CP59-73 and ICA91-5155) than that in drought susceptible cultivars-Cadmus (Wagih et al 2004), N12 (Rutherford 1989), R570 (Errabii et al 2006), and ICA91-2195 (Queiroz et al 2011) grown under osmotic stress. In fact, proline accumulation is a good indicator of identification of drought tolerant genotypes in sugarcane (Errabii et al 2006;Queiroz et al 2011).…”

“…Water deficit stands out among the numerous abiotic factors that most significantly reduce the performance of sugarcane plantations, which is the main cause of reductions in productivity Montesinos-Pereira et al, 2014). To deal with this problem, some papers (Carlin & Santos, 2009;Queiroz et al, 2011;Gimenez et al, 2013) on water deficit have been developed in the search for drought-tolerant cultivars. However, studies that address the topic are still needed to increase our understanding of plant mechanisms for adapting to adverse environments (Monteiro et al, 2014).…”
