Abiotic stress QTL in lettuce crop–wild hybrids: comparing greenhouse and field experiments [PDF]
, 2014 The development of stress-tolerant crops is an increasingly important goal of current crop breeding. A higher abiotic stress tolerance could increase the probability of introgression of genes from crops to wild relatives. This is particularly relevant to

Effect of reduced PAR on growth and photosynthetic efficiency of soybean genotypes
Journal of Agrometeorology, 2017 Soybean is an important crop, and physiologically, it is photosensitive in nature and therefore, is likely to be highly affected by the atmospheric brown clouds (ABCs) which reduce PAR (Photosynthetically Active Radiation) availability, and moisture ...
