Assessment of genetic diversity for drought, heat and combined drought and heat stress tolerance in early maturing maize landraces

Climate change is expected to aggravate the effects of drought, heat and combined drought and heat stresses. An important step in developing ‘climate smart’ maize varieties is to identify germplasm with good levels of tolerance to the abiotic stresses. The primary objective of this study was to iden...
