Oxygen isotope enrichment (Delta(18)O) reflects yield potential and drought resistance in maize.

Plant, cell & environment - 1 Nov 2009

Cabrera-Bosquet Llorenç, Sánchez Ciro, Araus José Luis

Abstract excerpt

Measurement of stable isotopes in plant dry matter is a useful phenotypic tool for speeding up breeding advance in C(3) crops exposed to different water regimes. However, the situation in C(4) crops is far from resolved, since their photosynthetic metabolism precludes (at least in maize) the use of carbon isotope discrimination. This paper investigates the use of oxygen isotope enrichment (Delta(18)O) as a new...
