Drought tolerance in US maize

Agricultural Water Management, 1983
Jensen. S.D. and Cavalieri, A.J., 1983. Drought tolerance in US maize. Agric. Water Manage., 7: 223–236. Soil water deficits, especially when accompanied by excessively high temperatures, are probably the most common yield limiting factors in maize production.

Assessment of Drought Tolerance in Sainfoin: Physiological and Drought Tolerance Indices

Agronomy Journal, 2015
The physiological basis of genetic variation in drought response and its association with forage yield and drought tolerance indices is not clear in sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia Scop.). In this study, 100 sainfoin genotypes from 10 ecotypes were clonally propagated and evaluated under non‐stressed and water deficit conditions during 2 yr ...

Drought tolerance in potatoes

The Journal of Agricultural Science, 1979
SummaryIn field experiments made over 3 years Pentland Crown and Majestic gave, in general, higher total and dry matter yields from plots given no supplementary water and protected from rainfall throughout growth than King Edward or Maris Piper. However, on plots kept at or near to field capacity all varieties gave similar yields.

Patenting Drought Tolerance in Organisms

Recent Patents on DNA & Gene Sequences, 2009
Dehydration is a major form of osmotic stress in cells. Physiological and molecular basis of dehydration stress responses in cells and organisms has been intensively researched over past years. Almost all of the patented dehydration stress tolerance genes from different organisms were used in engineering drought tolerance in crop plants.

Drought Tolerance of Photosynthesis

2016
Drought is one of the major environmental factors that inhibits many metabolic processes and constrains plant growth and crop productivity. The ongoing global warming and current climate changes are enlarging the land areas where plants experience water deficit.

Drought Tolerance in Maize

2009
Drought is the single most common cause of severe crop production shortage in developing countries, and global warming is predicted to further exacerbate drought's impact. This chapter describes how to best evaluate segregating germplasm under water-limited conditions, what are the secondary traits to be included in the selection and why is it ...

Evaluation of Drought Tolerance in Durum Wheat Genotypes Using Drought Tolerance Indices

Ethiopian Journal of Crop Science, 2022
Drought has become challenging globally, particularly under rain-fed crop production systems of Ethiopia. It is one of the major causes for wheat  yield reduction. One hundred forty-four durum wheat genotypes were evaluated at Debre-Zeit experiment station in 2017 dry season, under  drought stressed and non-stressed environments, to identify ...

Drought Tolerant Sorghum and Cotton Germplasm

Agricultural Water Management, 1983
Abstract Sorghum ( Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) and cotton ( Gossypium hirsutum L.) are the summer crops traditionally grown in the rainfed or supplementary irrigated areas of the semi-arid southern Great Plains. Both crops have the ability to withstand periods of water deficit and to yield an economic return to the farmer.

Phenotype and Drought Tolerance in Wheat

Agricultural Meteorology, 1974
Abstract An extensive root system is associated with drought resistance in wheat and selection for high yield under moisture stress conditions does select for larger root system. While breeders have occasionally selected consciously, or unconsciously, for extensive rooting, a systematic breeding program for a desirable root system will contribute to ...
