e0“the genotypes TBG-129, LBG-1015, PU-1804 and PU-31 were found to withstand high temperatures by maintaining higher chlorophyll stability index, cooler canopies, more proline accumulation and higher antioxidant defence activity, reflecting the lesser membrane leakage due to decrease in free radicals and MDA accumulation, thereby recording higher seed yield compared to other genotypes”
