Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Drought resistant lines had higher leaf area than sensitive lines under drought.
- Intervention effect Drought significantly reduced leaf osmotic potential in all four lines.
- Association Drought resistance was closely related to osmotic adjustment.
- Observation The drought resistant lines had higher osmotic adjustment, 0.469 and 0.496 MPa.
- Association Drought resistance was negatively related to water retention capability.
- Observation The drought resistant strains had lower water retention capability than sensitive lines.
- Association Water retention capability was negatively related to osmotic adjustment.
- Recommendation The authors concluded water retention capability is not a reliable selection criterion for drought resistance.
