Morphological indices such as plant height, stem diameter and physiological indices such as protein, soluble sugar, chlorophyll content and relative conductivity (REC) of the two varieties under drought stress at seedling stage, tillering stage and jointing stage were determined, and data statistics and variance analysis were performed for each index. The results showed that the morphological indices, plant height of Wenyi 4 and Wenyi 5 were significantly affected by drought stress at seedling stage, while the stem diameter was significantly affected by drought stress at seedling and jointing stage. In terms of physiological indices, the relative conductivity, protein and soluble sugar contents of Wenyi 5 increased at a higher degree, whereas chlorophyll content decreased at a higher degree, indicating that Wenyi 5 was greatly affected by drought stress. Through the analysis of drought resistance of the tested materials at different stages by polar ordination method, the results were as follows: jointing stage of Wenyi 5>jointing stage of Wenyi 4>seedling stage of Wenyi 4>seedling stage of Wenyi 5>tillering Stage of Wenyi 4>Tillering Stage of Wenyi 5. For the growth period, the drought resistance was as follows: jointing stage>seedling stage>tillering stage. In conclusion, Wenyi 4 has strong drought resistance and is suitable for droughtresistant cultivation.展开更多
