Abstract
Deep water extraction is an important determinant of drought tolerance, but is difficult to estimate for breeding applications. Our project evaluates the potential of high resolution thermal imaging and accurate measurements of leaf temperature combined with a controlled water table design to estimate the sensitivity of maize (Zea mays L.) genotypes to the depth of water table and, presumably, their ability to capture deep water.
