Table 1.

Range and mean ± SD of traits measured in S1 and S2 including significant differences among genotypes, seasons, treatments, genotype x season, genotype x treatment, season x treatment and genotype x season x treatment interactions at p-values 0.05 (*), 0.01 (**) and 0.001 (***) in durum wheat RIL population. Gr = germination %, Tr = Transpiration rate, Sc = Stomatal conductance, Phr = Photosynthetic rate, Wue = water use efficiency, Hd = heading time, Ph = plant height, Sl = spike length, Sw = spike weight, Sps = seeds per spike, Bm = biomass, Yd = yield, HI = harvest index, Tkw = thousand kernel weight, STI = stress tolerance index, MP = mean productivity, ST = stress tolerance, SSI= stress susceptibility index, DRI = drought resistance index, S1 = season 1 (2016-17), S2 = (2017-18), D = drought, R = relative and NA = not applicable.
