Screening for Drought Resistance: Evaluation of Drought Susceptibility Index of Legume Plants under Natural Growth Conditions

Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science, 1996
AbstractEighteen cultivars of legume species (field bean, soybean, field pea, lupine) were screened for drought tolerance in 3 year‐long field experiments. The aim of the investigations was to evaluate the generic variation of drought susceptibility of the tested varieties.

Drought resistance of wheat alien chromosome addition lines evaluated by membership function value based on multiple traits and drought resistance index of grain yield

Field Crops Research, 2015
Abstract Drought is the single greatest abiotic stress leading to yield loss of wheat worldwide. The long-term domestication and selective breeding in artificial environments may have reduced the drought resistance of wheat. Wheat alien chromosome addition lines, with chromosomes derived from wild species, may possess drought resistant genetic ...

Drought resistance and index screening of domestic selection oat varieties

Вестник российской сельскохозяйственной науки, 2023
The determination of drought-resistant oat varieties is based on the selection of identification indicators and the creation of a comprehensive assessment system that effectively identifies the most promising genotypes for breeding work. During three-year model experiments, 40 varieties of oats of Russian breeding were studied by measuring ...

Germination in osmotic solutions as an index of drought resistance in Sorghum

Madras Agricultural Journal, 1965
The use of D-Mannitol, sugar and other salt solutions to test drought hardiness is a simple, easily repeated test which gives a relative measure of any differences among varieties for this character. This consists of germination of seeds in various osmotic solutions and the assumption involved is that if a seed can germinate by absorbing water against ...

Assessment of Drought Resistance of Crop Genotypes by Means of the Water Potential Index

Crop Science, 1999
ABSTRACTThe evaluation of crop genotypes for their adaptability is often performed by means of regression techniques of yields against some kind of an environmental index as independent variable. The weakness of these techniques lies in the lack of a direct assessment of a given environment by specific environmental factors.

Performance index: An expeditious tool to screen for improved drought resistance in the Lathyrus genus

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, 2014
AbstractSome species of the Lathyrus genus are among the most promising crops for marginal lands, with high resilience to drought, flood, and fungal diseases, combined with high yields and seed nutritional value. However, lack of knowledge on the mechanisms underlying its outstanding performance and methodologies to identify elite genotypes has ...

Effect of Drought stress on Resistant starch content and Glycemic index of rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Starch - Stärke, 2020
AbstractDrought stress is the most devastating abiotic stress which severely affects starch biosynthesis, thus altering the glycemic index (GI) of rice grains. It shortens the period of grain filling by rapidly translocating assimilates to grains, thereby decreasing amylose content (AC), resistant starch (RS), and increasing GI value.
