Maize is a major crop for global food security, yet its productivity is increasingly threatened by drought stress, especially in arid and semi-arid regions. Understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying drought tolerance is essential for improving yield stability. In this study, drought-tolerant (PHBA6) and d...
Drought stress is a primary constraint on global maize production, significantly impairing plant growth, reproductive synchrony, and grain yield. To address this challenge, we aimed to identify SNPs and candidate genes associated with maize drought tolerance, with emphasis on grain yield (GY) and its drought resi...
High-temperature stress severely affects maize production and leads to significant yield losses. Breeding maize varieties with enhanced high-temperature tolerance is an effective strategy to mitigate these adverse effects. Identifying quantitative trait loci (QTLs) and candidate genes associated with heat toleran...
