- Intervention effect Drought significantly reduced plant height, total leaf area and leaf numbers.
- Intervention effect Drought significantly reduced total dry matter, chlorophyll and relative water content.
- Intervention effect Water use efficiency increased under stress in 12 genotypes.
- Association Stomatal conductance depended on the interaction between genotype and porometer reading time.
- Intervention effect ITC.0987 was most tolerant, with the least effect on above-ground growth.
- Intervention effect TMB2x9722-1 had the least total dry matter reduction among improved diploids.
- Intervention effect TMB2x9722-1 had the highest water use efficiency among improved diploids.
- Intervention effect TMB2x9172 had the highest increase in root-shoot ratio under stress.
- Recommendation ITC.0987, TMB2x9722-1 and TMB2x9172 were identified as drought-tolerant breeding candidates.
