- Intervention effect Water stress reduced forage yield and most measured morphological traits.
- Intervention effect Water stress reduced genotypic variation for most measured traits.
- Observation Forage yield had the highest genotypic variation, while days to pollination had the lowest.
- Observation Dry matter yield had low broad sense heritability.
- Observation Stem number, height and crown diameter were main components of forage yield.
- Association The direct and indirect effects of yield components differed between normal and drought conditions.
- Recommendation The authors recommend indirect selection for high yielding drought tolerant varieties under drought stress.
