The genetics of drought tolerance in conifers [PDF]
SummaryAs temperatures warm and precipitation patterns shift as a result of climate change, interest in the identification of tree genotypes that will thrive under more arid conditions has grown. In this review, we discuss the multiple definitions of ‘drought tolerance’ and the biological processes involved in drought responses.

Drought tolerance in soybean: genetics, metabolomics, remote sensing, and breeding for enhanced drought tolerance [PDF]
Drought is the most damaging abiotic stress affecting soybean production, with variable rainfall contributing significantly to year-to-year yield variability. Breeding efforts aim to develop cultivars with stable and competitive yields under both drought

Drought Tolerance in Wheat [PDF]
Drought is one of the most important phenomena which limit crops’ production and yield. Crops demonstrate various morphological, physiological, biochemical, and molecular responses to tackle drought stress. Plants’ vegetative and reproductive stages are intensively influenced by drought stress.

Optimizing the N Rate for Maize Forage to Balance Profits and N Ecological Stress
The N application used for the production of forage affects environment stress. The N application rate used for the production of the whole maize (Zea mays L.) plant (WMP) affects the produced feed and environment.

Long-term single tillage causes serious deterioration of land quality and reduction of crop yield. Tillage rotation can alleviate the problems caused by long-term single tillage. However, the effects of different tillage rotations are still very limited.

Heat stability of winter wheat depends on cultivars, timing and protective methods
Heat stress negatively affects wheat production in many regions of the world. At present, sensitivity to heat stress remains one of the least understood aspects of wheat genetics and breeding, and measures for preventing heat stress are understudied.

Comprehensive evaluation of saline-alkali tolerance in different wheat (Triticum aestivum) varieties throughout the entire growth cycle [PDF]
To investigate the salt tolerance of different wheat varieties and identify those suitable for cultivation in saline-alkali soil, 64 predominantly promoted wheat varieties were cultivated in artificial salt ponds.

Evaluation of a new method for quantification of heat tolerance in different wheat cultivars
Heat stress seriously affects wheat production in many regions of the world. At present, heat tolerance research remains one of the least understood fields in wheat genetics and breeding and there is a lack of effective methods to quantify heat stress ...
