Response Of Drought Tolerant And Conventional Corn To Limited Irrigation, I. Kisekka, F. Lamm
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the response of two commercial hybrids (DKC 62-27 DGVT2PRO [drought tolerant trait (DT)] and DKC 62-98 VT2PRO [conventional]) to limited irrigation. Preliminary results from the 2014 and 2015 growing seasons at Southwest Research-Extension Center near Garden City, Kansas, indicate the effect of irrigation capacity on corn yield was significant (P<0.001)for both hybrids. The effect of the drought tolerance trait on yield was not significant (P>0.05)in both years. The effect of the interaction between irrigation capacity and corn hybrid on yield was also not significant (P>0.05) …
