Abstract excerpt
Drought severely limits crop productivity, and the processes that support yield stability in modern maize heterotic hybrids remain insufficiently characterized. We evaluated two maize elite F1 hybrids, H.393 and H.166, under prolonged moderate water deficit in greenhouse and field conditions to identify genotype-specific mechanisms of drought resistance. These two hybrids previously selected in the Steppe zone of...
