Relationship between Physiological and Seed Yield Related Traits in Winter Rapeseed (Brassica Napus L.) Cultivars under Water Deficit Stress

Finding the relationship between physiological traits and seed yield components is an important objective in crop breeding programs. Canonical correlation analysis has been adopted to study the strength of association between the physiological traits and seed yield under water deficit stress and to obtain the physiological traits that have the largest effect on seed yield and its components. This study revealed that leaf water potential,...
