Abstract excerpt
Drought stress is one of the major abiotic factors that severely limits global cotton yield by disrupting essential morpho-physiological and biochemical functions. In this study, forty genetically diverse cotton genotypes were evaluated under three irrigation levels: control (100% field capacity), moderate (60% FC), and severe drought (40% FC), during the flowering stage in a controlled glasshouse environment....
