Notes: PN: photosynthesis rate, μmolm⁻² s⁻¹; E: transpiration rate, mmolm⁻² s⁻¹; GS: stomatal conductance, mmolm⁻² s⁻¹; LAI: leaf area index; MFIA: mean leaf angle degree; TD: transmission coefficient for diffuse penetration; TR: transmission coefficient for solar beam radiation penetration; LD: leaf distribution; CY: cane yield; NSH: number of stalks per hectare; SSW: single stalk weight; VC: variance contribution; CC: cumulative contribution; JD: joint degree; SV: special variance; ⁻negative load value; the larger absolute value means the larger load value.
