Abstract:The aim of the study was screening fourteen hybrids of maize under normal and drought stress. A field trial was carried out during two summer seasons on an experimental farm, Ismailia, Egypt. Growth, yield physiological traits have been estimated. Indices of drought resistance were calculated for each hybrid; mean productivity, drought susceptibility index, tolerance index, geometric mean productivity and yield stability index. Simple sequence repeat analysis of DNA (SSR) was applied to estimate the genetic di… Show more
