ABSTRACT
Phenotyping maize (Zea mays L.) for drought tolerance is costly and time consuming. Our objectives were to determine (i) the heritability, genetic variance, and genetic correlations for grain yield and secondary traits in maize under drought and (ii) the efficiency of indirect selection through secondary traits versus genomewide selecti...
