- Method / resource The integrated system provided simulated best crop management under climate projections.
- Observation Current-genotype maize yields were projected to decrease across all tested scenarios.
- Observation High-yield agro-management options were projected to narrow.
- Observation Genotype selection mitigated projected climate impacts even in extreme years.
- Observation Maximum maize yields declined under future climates.
- Observation Some genotype windows had higher intermediate yields under future climates than current conditions.
- Association Thermal time requirements at juvenile and maturity stages were the most critical genotype-performance factors in warmer climates.
