Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation The Lodoka landrace was the most drought-tolerant genotype.
- Observation Lodoka had the highest relative chlorophyll content and green leaf number at maturity.
- Observation Lodoka yielded more than B35 and E36-1 under both water regimes.
- Association Relative chlorophyll content correlated with green leaves at maturity at r=.71.
- Association Relative chlorophyll content correlated with hundred-seed weight at r=.85.
- Association Relative chlorophyll content correlated with panicle weight at r=.82.
- Association Relative chlorophyll content correlated with grain yield at r=.78.
- Observation Broad-sense heritability for DFL was 98.4%.
- Observation The results identified wild relatives and landraces as sources of drought tolerance alleles.
