Dissection of drought response of modern and underutilized wheat varieties according to Passioura’s yield-water framework
Trait-based breeding is essential to improve wheat yield, particularly when stress adaptation is targeted. A set of modern and underutilized wheat genotypes was examined in a two-year field experiment with distinct seasonal water supply. Yield formation and drought response strategies were analyzed...
