Maize Open-Pollinated Populations Physiological Improvement: Validating Tools for Drought Response Participatory Selection

Maize Open-Pollinated Populations Physiological Improvement: Validating Tools for Drought Response Participatory Selection

Participatory selection—exploiting specific adaptation traits to target environments—helps to guarantees yield stability in a changing climate, in particular under low-input or organic production. The purpose of the present study was to identify reliable, low-cost, fast and easy-...
