The genetics of drought tolerance in conifers [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2017
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]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
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]

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2013
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.

Climate-Smart Tillage Practices with Straw Return to Sustain Crop Productivity

open access: yesAgronomy, 2022
Climate change seriously threatens global crop production. However, there are few reports on field crop yield and yield components based on long-term different climate conditions.

Optimizing the N Rate for Maize Forage to Balance Profits and N Ecological Stress

open access: yesAgronomy, 2022
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.

Rotary and subsoiling tillage rotations influence soil carbon and nitrogen sequestration and crop yield

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2022
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

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2020
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]

open access: yesEmirates Journal of Food and Agriculture
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

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2018
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 ...

Genetic dissection of the grain-filling rate and related traits through linkage analysis and genome-wide association study in bread wheat

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2022
Wheat grain yield is generally sink-limited during grain filling. The grain-filling rate (GFR) plays a vital role but is poorly studied due to the difficulty of phenotype surveys.
