Developing mathematical model for diurnal dynamics of photosynthesis in Saccharum officinarum responsive to different irrigation and silicon application.

ABSTRACT: In the dynamic era of climate change, agricultural farming systems are facing various unprecedented problems worldwide. Drought stress is one of the serious abiotic stresses that hinder the growth potential and crop productivity. Silicon (Si) can improve crop yield by enhancing the efficiency of inputs and reducing relevant losses. As a quasi-essential element and the 2nd most abundant element in the Earth's crust, Si is utilized by plants and applied exogenously to combat drought stress and improve plant performance by increasing physiological, cellular and molecular responses. However, the physiological mechanisms that respond to water stress are still not well defined in Saccharum officinarum plants. To the best of our knowledge, the dynamics of photosynthesis responsive to diffe
