- Intervention effect Sudden drought caused more malondialdehyde accumulation than gradual drought.
- Intervention effect Sudden drought caused a greater leaf relative water content reduction than gradual drought.
- Intervention effect Sudden drought caused a greater dry matter reduction than gradual drought.
- Intervention effect Applied GB increased maize dry matter and leaf relative water content under both drought types.
- Intervention effect Applied GB increased maize GB and free proline contents under both drought types.
- Intervention effect Applied GB increased SOD, CAT and POD activities under both drought types.
- Intervention effect Applied GB lowered malondialdehyde content under both drought types.
- Observation GB application was more effective in drought-sensitive S 911 than tolerant S 9 under the same drought type.
- Recommendation Authors proposed gradual drought hardening and GB application to improve maize robustness under water deficit.
