Abstract:
      In this study, the physiological characters and phosphate assimilations of maize inbred lines with different drought resistance were studied under water stress. The results showed that it is an important growth period in the bell-mouthed period of maize, there were obvious-relation between changes of fresh/dry of weight of leaves, relative water content, relative electricity conductance ratio, the transpiration rate, Somatal water conservancy, phosphate assimilations and drought resistance. They could be used as appraisal indexes of drought resistance of maize in the bell-mouthed period.
