Wheat breeding for multiple stress tolerance at ICARDA: Achievements and prospects
Wheat is the principal food crop in Central and West Asia and North Africa (CWANA) region with average consumption of 200 kg/capita/year. The productivity of wheat in the region is very low (2.5 t/ha) principally due to ...
Heat-Tolerant QTLs Associated with Grain Yield and Its Components in Spring Bread Wheat under Heat-Stressed Environments of Sudan and Egypt
Heat stress decreases photosynthesis, pollen viability, grain number and weight, and hence lowers yield and quality of wheat by variable amounts among different cultivars and genotypes. The present study was carried out ...
