Individual and concurrent effects of drought and chilling stresses on morpho-physiological characteristics and oxidative metabolism of maize cultivars

H. A. Hussain, M. Shengnan, S. Hussain, U. Ashraf, Q. Zhang, S. Ahmad Anjum, I. Ali, L. Wang

This study examines how drought and chilling stresses individually and together affect maize growth and oxidative metabolism, finding that combined stress is more harmful than either alone, with hybrids better tolerating stress than inbreds.
