Characteristics of physiology, phenology, and drought susceptibility index of two varieties of Job’s tears under water deficit stress

Job’s tears or hanjeli (Coix lacryma-jobi L.) is a functional food crop with less popularly cultivated and longer life cycle than paddy and maize, so that it is potentially exposed to drought stress in the dry season in tropical areas. This study aims to evaluate the physiology, phenology, and droug...
