In: American Journal of Botany v. 44, no. 7, p. 628-633Summary: Among the highly inbred strains of maize is a wide range of heritable differences with regard to drought tolerance. Unfortunately for our understanding of the physiological mechanisms and anatomical features contributing to such tolerance, these relative differences appear to be conditioned by multigenic systems (Heyne and Brunson, 1940). Therefore, it has not been possible to isolate and investigate major components which differentiate drought-tolerant from drought-susceptible types.
