Abstract excerpt
Cell membrane thermal stability, antioxidant activity, phenolics content, Paraquat tolerance and kernel weight were compared for their ability to identify heat tolerant genotypes. Four wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genotypes, Kauz, MTRWA116, Opata and W7984 were used in this study, Kauz and MTRWA116 being thermotolerant and thermosensitive, respectively. Plants were exposed to high temperatures of 39 and 35...
