      abstract     = {In a future exposed to threats of climate change,
                      sustainable biomass production will be crucial. Maize (Zea
                      mays) and sorghum (Sorghum sp.) are important crops for
                      human and animal nutrition, as well as for bioenergy. The
                      aim of this study was to investigate maize and sorghum in
                      mixed cropping with soybean (Glycine max) and faba bean
                      (Vicia faba) regarding biomass yield, drought tolerance,
                      phosphorus (P) availability, and enzyme activity in soil as
                      affected by the single and combined effects of water and P
                      supply in two outdoor pot trials with rainout shelters.
                      Maize had the highest biomass under sufficient water supply
                      $(80\%$ water holding capacity, WHC), but a sharp decrease
                      of its biomass of about $60\%$ was measured when water was
                      limited $(30\%$ WHC). In the mixtures, drought induced
                      reduction of biomass was less than $40\%.$ For mixed
                      cropping usually higher contents of labile P fractions in
                      soil than for sole cropped monocots were found. This was
                      especially true for the combined stress of water and P
                      deficit and can be partly explained by a higher activity of
                      the acid phosphatase in the soil of the mixtures. A higher
                      yield stability of the crop mixtures makes them a suitable
                      agronomic alternative to sole cropped maize or sorghum under
                      suboptimal conditions of water and P shortage.},
