Drought and associated effects can cause serious damage to crop maize. Breeding drought tolerance by the development of new hybrids, aims at identifying some accurate screening techniques. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of the hydrological conditions (with stress - drought year and without stress - normal year) on the yield and other traits for six maize hybrids grown at ARDS ?imnic, Craiova and to investigate drought tolerance of these hybrids using several stress tolerance indices. Analys...

Miscanthus sp. is a perennial grass cultivated in the European Union with multiple uses. It can be used as a commercial energy crop or as a resource for easy construction materials and isolation. It can also be used as a source of CO2 capture and restraint. Miscanthus is a plant which demand low needs for fertilization, adapting easily to less fertile soils. In this way it was taken into study the behavior of this species on a sandy soil, poorly fertile from Southern Romania, under the influence of some doses of n...
