- Intervention effect Water deficit reduced stem dry matter production in both sugarcane and energy cane.
- Mechanism The stem dry matter reduction under water deficit was attributed to changes in C, N and P stoichiometric homeostasis.
- Observation The silicon benefit to dry matter was not a reflection of a change in C:N:P homeostasis.
