An extensive and increasingly complex literature on drought stress in cereals is available, although relatively little work has been undertaken on oats. The review by Ludlow and Muchow () is recommended as a framework for understanding traits in cereals affecting water transpired, water-use efficiency, and HI. Recent reviews of breeding for drought resistance and water-use efficiency in cereals include Araus et al (), Richards et al (), Reynolds and Trethowan (), Tambussi et al (), and Witcombe et al ().

Peltonen-Sainio and Makela () used several methods to assess varietal responses to drought. While none could be associated with yield losses induced by withholding water from pots in a glasshouse, relative water content (Barrs and Watherley ) was correlated with photosynthetic parameters, and modern Finnish cultivars had high CO exchange rate and relative water content. There are two promising areas in which research undertaken on other cereals could possibly be transferred to oats. First, carbon isotope discrimination has been used to select high transpiration efficiency, leading to increased biomass and yield in wheat in water-limiting environments (Rebetzke et al ) and the release of the drought-resistant line Drysdale (Tester and Bacic ).

K. Recommended List). Buffalo is a husked dwarf variety (containing the Dw dwarfness gene) with low kernel content, small grains, and poor resistance to mildew. Tardis is a conventional-height variety with good kernel content, large grains, and high adultplant resistance to mildew from Pc. In June , the Buffalo × Tardis genetic linkage map comprised  loci mapped in  linkage groups with a total map length of , cM. Two years of replicated yield and quality trials were completed with this population.
