Among the genotypes tested genotypes NLR 3010, NLR 40059, NLR 34242, NLR 33671 gave significantly higher values for SCMR, RWC, and Chlorophyll Fluorescence. These genotypes also recorded high grain yield and yield attributes. Hence, these genotypes are considered as drought tolerant as they posses moisture stress as well as thermo tolerance.
