Harnessing root phenotyping and root growth plasticity of landraces of maize (Zea mays L.) for enhancing waterlogging tolerance in fragile and challenging agro-ecologies of Eastern Himalaya

Harnessing root phenotyping and root growth plasticity of landraces of maize (Zea mays L.) for enhancing waterlogging tolerance in fragile and challenging agro-ecologies of Eastern Himalaya

Maize is a major crop of the Eastern Himalayan Region (EHR) which faces significant environmental challenges including waterlogging (WL) under changing climate. Through microcosm and field experiments, this study aimed to evaluate the phenotypic plasticity and adaptive mechanisms of maize landraces...
