- Intervention effect Under limited water, photosynthesis and stomatal conductance tended to decrease in the Egyptian parent.
- Intervention effect Under limited water, photosynthesis and stomatal conductance tended to decrease in the Japanese Egyptian hybrid.
- Intervention effect Transpiration rate did not change significantly under limited water in either parent or F1 hybrids.
- Association PSII maximum quantum yield declined with decreasing soil moisture in the Japanese cultivar, with mean 0.14.
- Association PSII maximum quantum yield declined with decreasing soil moisture in EJ hybrid, with mean 0.16.
- Association PSII maximum quantum yield declined with decreasing soil moisture in JE hybrid, with mean 0.15.
- Intervention effect Severe drought decreased chlorophyll content in both okra parents and hybrids.
