Effects of drought stress on photosynthetic traits and protective enzyme activity in maize seeding
|
Abstract:
Drought is a major limiting factor affecting maize growth,development and yield mainly in arid and semiarid regions of China.But the physiological mechanism related to simultaneous comparison of photosynthetic response and protective enzyme activity,which could be useful for identifying differences in maize cultivars under drought stress,remains unclear.The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of drought stress on the photosynthetic characteristics of the different maize cultivars at the s...
