Evaluation of different bread wheat genotypes for drought tolerance under sandy soil conditions by canopy temperature and excised leaf water loss techniques [electronic resource].

Includes references.

Two field experiments were conducted :H the Experimental Farm of Damanhour Faculty of Agriculture, at EI- Baustan, Damanhour University, Egypt during 2003/2004 and 2004/2005 winter growing seasons. This study aimed to evaluate sixteen bread wheat genotypes (locals and introductions) for drought tolerance under newly reclaimed area by two tecnniques; i.e. the canopy temperature (Tc) and the excised -leaf water loss (ELWL); and to compare these techniques with grain yield and kernel weight susceptibility indices.
