Abstract:ABSTRACT(1) Soil alkalinization and salinization represent a growing global challenge. Maize (Zea mays L.), with its relatively low tolerance to salt and alkali, is increasingly vulnerable to saline‐alkali stress. Identifying maize genotypes that can withstand salinity and alkalinity is crucial to broaden the base of salt‐alkali‐tolerant maize germplasm. (2) In this study, we screened 65 maize germplasm resources for alkali stress using a 60 mM NaHCO3 solution. We measured fifteen morphological and physiologic… Show more
