Other claims from this paper (4)
- Observation Hybrids 1, 7, 8, 9 and 11 preserved higher water status and growth rate during water stress.
- Observation These hybrids accumulated higher proline and soluble carbohydrate concentrations under water stress.
- Observation These hybrids prevented structural damage under water stress.
- Recommendation The authors suggest Khormaei as paternal parent and Siah or Sabz as maternal parent for drought-tolerant fig hybrids.
