BREEDING FOR HIGH TEMPERATURE AND COLD TOLERANCE IN WHEAT: DE - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Wheat (Triticum spp.), known as the "King of Cereals," is one of the most significant crops globally and ranks as the second staple food in India after rice.W The document titled "Breeding for High Temperature and Cold Tolerance in Wheat" provides an in-depth analysis of the challenges posed by temperature extremes to wheat production and the breeding strategies aimed at improving wheat's tolerance to heat and cold. Temperature stress (Heat stress, cold stress and freezing Stress) which deviates from wheat's optimal growth range, is a major limiting factor in wheat production. By integrating traditional methods with molecular tools, researchers aim to develop high-yielding varieties capable of thriving under extreme temperature conditions. Success in these efforts will ensure wheat remains a resilient and reliable crop, vital for food security in a changing climate.
