Evaluation of drought-tolerant varieties based on root system architecture in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.)

Abstract Background Root system architecture (RSA) exhibits significant genetic variability and is closely associated with drought tolerance. However, the evaluation of drought-tolerant cotton cultivars based on RSA in the field conditions is still underexplored. Results So, this study conducted a c...
