Summary, etc. Inadequate water is a major cause of crop yield losses particularly in the tropics. Uncertainties in weather due to global warming are expected to increase the occurrence of inadequate water availability. At CIMMYT, various approaches to improved drought tolerance in maize have been explored. About three decades of work on drought tolerance in maize has resulted in improved source populations and open-pollinated and hybrid products that perform well under drought stress. Results from recent studies show the usefulness of this germplasm under severe drought stress conditions. Furthermore, the improvement for mid-season drought tolerance appears to impart tolerance to various other stresses, such as low-N fertility. Under ICAR-CIMMYT collaborative program, a large amount of maize germplasm, including inbred lines from CIMMYT and the national program, were screened for excess moisture/waterlogging tolerance in India. Many promising tolerant lines were identified and further improved for developing excess moisture tolerant cultivars for waterlogging prone areas in India. The secondary traits such as anthesissilking-interval (ASI), early and increased brace root development and high root porosity have been identified the traits associated with excess moisture tolerance in maize. Due to fairly high expression of the stress-adaptive traits under managed drought or excessive moisture stress conditions, they can be carefully selected and further improved. Since the maize is frequently exposed to both the extremes of water availability in many monsoonal areas in Asia, our major focus is to develop robust germplasm with improved performance across the regimes of water availability.
