Drought enhances chilling tolerance in a chilling‐sensitive maize (Zea mays) varietyNew Phytologist, 134
The effects of short‐term exposure of seedlings to suboptimal temperature (14 °C for 1 or 4 h in 24 h cycles) during chilling (5 °C for 12 days) on the water status and intensity of photosynthesis of tolerant (TG) and chilling‐sensitive (SG) maize genotypes were studied. Daily warming for 1 or 4 h resulted in a decrease in the hydration of the seedlings to 31.1 % and 61.5 % (SG) and 14.8 % (TG) and 39.1 % (SG), respectively, in comparison with the continuously chilled control. During warming for 4 h, both genotypes absorbed water from soil in amounts that partly compensated for its loss through transpiration, after the plants had been moved to the lower temperature. A protective effect of shorter warming (1 h) on the hydration of the seedlings was a result of a strong, stomatal limitation of transpiration during the initial days of chilling. Warming for 1 or 4 h also increased the ability of TG stomata to close in reaction to water deficit in chilling conditions. The effect of increased temperature delayed the decrease of PN in leaves and limited RGR inhibition of the seedling mass caused by chilling. Daily warming of plants at the seedling phase (14 and 20 °C for 1 or 4 h) reduced the unfavourable effect of chilling (5 °C for a period of 8 days) on the final yield, the filling of caryopses and their number in a cob after growth in natural conditions.
