To match predicted population growth, annual food production should be doubled by 2050.
This is not achievable by current agronomical and breeding practices, due to the impact of …

Global agriculture is dominated by a handful of species that currently supply a huge
proportion of our food and feed. It additionally faces the massive challenge of providing food …

Plant domestication and crop improvement have resulted in reduced genetic diversity in
most of our cultivated crops, thus limiting their potential to adapt to future challenges (Byrne …

Warming and drought are reducing global crop production with a potential to substantially
worsen global malnutrition. As with the green revolution in the last century, plant genetics …

Climate change threatens reduced crop production and poses major challenges to food
security. The breeding of climate‐resilient crop varieties is increasingly urgent. Wild plant …

Adapting to climate change, providing sufficient human food and nutritional needs, and
securing sufficient energy supplies will call for a radical transformation from the current …

Major global crops in high-yielding, temperate cropping regions are facing increasing
threats from the impact of climate change, particularly from drought and heat at critical …

Research into crop yield and resilience has underpinned global food security, evident in
yields tripling in the past 5 decades. The challenges that global agriculture now faces are …

Sustainable agriculture in the future will depend on crops that are tolerant to biotic and
abiotic stresses, require minimal input of water and nutrients and can be cultivated with a …

Climate change and exponential population growth are exposing an immediate need for
developing future crops that are highly resilient and adaptable to changing environments to …
