Improving crop tolerance to drought is essential for maintaining yield stability under the continued threat of climate change and a key factor for achieving sustainability in agriculture by saving water resource usage Molecular breeding focusing on monogenic transgenic intervention has so far…
Heat and drought stress can cause severe negative impacts on canola (mainly B napus) The targeted identification of specific genetic determinants of stress adaptation and generation of related canola lines are effective approaches in breeding cultivars with strong stress resistance Since canola’s…
Abstract/Summary
Low water availability is a limiting factor for wheat production in arid/semi-arid western prairies This study characterized the Canadian heritage bread wheat panel for physiological traits, yield attributes, spectral indices and seed characteristics Stomatal, flag leaf, and…
