Other claims from this paper (5)
- Association Drought treatment interacted significantly with chickpea genotype for all measured traits.
- Observation Electrolyte leakage, stomatal conductance, yield components and harvest index had the highest variation.
- Intervention effect Stomatal conductance showed maximum reduction under drought stress, reaching up to 95% in ILC3279.
- Association Principal components identified relative water content, PSII photochemical efficiency and stomatal conductance as leading drought tolerance contributors.
- Recommendation The authors recommend evaluating those physiological traits when selecting drought tolerant chickpea.
