• Recent Advances in Sorghum Genetic Enhancement Research at ICRISAT (2011, background): “one stage, screening techniques have been developed to identify drought-tolerant genotypes at each of the growth stages, separately [34-40].”
• Mapping quantitative trait loci for flag leaf senescence as a yield determinant in winter wheat under optimal and drought-stressed environments (2004, background): “Genetically determined late onset of leaf senescence in sorghum (Sorghum bicolour L.) ( Borrell et al., 2000a, 2000b ), maize (Zea mays L.) (Baenziger et al., 1999) and durum wheat (T. durum L.) (Benbella & Paulsen, 1998; Hafsi et al., 2000) has increased yield under water-stressed environments.”
• Morphological and architectural development of root systems in sorghum and maize (2010, unknown): “The resulting F1 hybrids (ATx642/RQL12, ATx642/RQL36, AQL39/RQL12, and AQL39/ RQL36) differ in stay-green and in the capacity to yield under terminal water deficit (Borrell et al. 2000).”
