A Comparison of Different Stomatal Density Phenotypes of <i>Hordeum vulgare</i> under Varied Watering Regimes Reveals Superior Genotypes with Enhanced Drought Tolerance

Enhancing the water-use efficiency (WUE) of barley cultivars may safeguard yield deficits during periods of low rainfall. Reduced stomatal density is linked to enhanced WUE, leading to improved drought resistance across plant genera. In this study, 10 barley varieties exhibiting a range of stomatal...
