Hydritic Stress Tolerance Indices for Four New Varieties of Cotonnier (Gossypium Hirsutum)

Original Research Article /

1. Introduction Water stress is a major factor limiting crop production, particularly in the cotton-growing zone of Cameroon. It affects plant growth by inducing morphological, physiological and biochemical changes linked to the expression of genes associated with drought tolerance [8]. To survive, plants develop adaptation mechanisms, such as the accumulation of osmotic substances (proline, betaine,
