Crosses with spelt improve tolerance of South Asian spring wheat to spot blotch, terminal heat stress, and their combination
Abstract Spot blotch and terminal heat are two of the most important stresses for wheat in South Asia. A study was initiated to explore the use of spelt (Triticum spelta) to improve tolerance to these stresses in spring wheat (T. aestivum).
