Title

Nakai Matongera; Thokozile Ndhlela; Angeline van Biljon; et al. Food and Energy Security 2023. doi:10.1002/fes3.479
Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Most secondary traits differed significantly between heat and drought stress and well-watered conditions.
- Association Heterosis contributed significantly to grain yield under both conditions.
- Observation Mid and high-parent heterosis was higher when well-watered than under heat and drought stress.
- Association Inbred line performance was the best determinant of hybrid performance under stress.
- Association Grain yield and secondary traits were strongly correlated in parents and hybrids.
- Association Secondary traits of inbreds and hybrids were strongly correlated under both management levels.
- Method / resource Under stress, Zn-enhanced hybrid performance could be predicted from inbred line performance.
- Recommendation The authors recommend selecting parental lines for stress-tolerance secondary traits.
