SRAP Markers Associated with Water Use Efficiency and Some Agronomic Traits in Wheat under Different Irrigation Regimes
IFTY bread wheat lines were evaluated for drought tolerance and compared to six local cultivars under three water regimes (Well-watered = 0.8 Evapotranspiration (ETp), Mild drought stress = 0.6 ETp and severe drought stress = 0.4 ETp.). Eight agronomic traits were evaluated, i.e. days to heading, number of spikes/plant, 100-kernel weight (g), relative water content (%), chlorophyll concentration (μg cm-2), ... Read more
