The paper is focused to characterize a limited assortment in the context of a set of drought sensitivity indices, grouping these indices according to the conditions they reflect (stress and / or normal) and the correlations between them. In our research, we aimed also comparing different sensitivity indicators proposed in order to identify the most appropriate index to characterize the behavior of varieties that we have studied in field experiments. The 13 varieties have been tested for 14 years between 2002 and 2...

The analysis of the correlations between the specified characters (29 characters) along with the analysis of the variety classification for different characters involved in drought tolerance can provide information on the possibility of using varieties noted for a certain character in improving the tolerance to drought of another variety, where that determination was detected as a selection indicator. The correlation between the stem length ratio to 20% PEG versus the control stem length after 15 days and the loss...
