In recent years, with climate change, drought stress has been witnessed in many parts of the
world. In many irrigated regions also, shortage of water supply allows only limited irrigation …

Drought is likely the main abiotic stress that affects wheat yield. The identification of drought-
tolerant genotypes represents an effective way of dealing with the continuous decrease in …

In bread wheat, QTL interval mapping was conducted for nine important drought responsive
agronomic traits. For this purpose, a doubled haploid (DH) mapping population derived from …

Key message Environmental clustering helps to identify QTLs associated with grain yield in
different water stress scenarios. These QTLs could be useful for breeders to improve grain …

The improvement for drought tolerance requires understanding of the genetic control of
wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) reaction to drought. In this study, a set of 131 recombinant …

Drought is a major abiotic stress that adversely affects wheat production in many regions of
the world. The objective of this study was to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) controlling …

The genus Triticum includes bread (Triticum aestivum) and durum wheat (Triticum durum)
and constitutes a major source for human food consumption. Drought is currently the leading …

Abiotic stress strongly affects yield-related traits in durum wheat, in particular drought is one
of the main environmental factors that have effect on grain yield and plant architecture. In …

Drought adversely affects crop growth, development and yield. This study assessed genetic
variation in a panel of wheat lines to water deficit and identified the QTLs governing this …

For discovering the quantitative trait loci (QTLs) contributing to early seedling growth and
drought tolerance during germination, conditional and unconditional analyses of 12 traits of …
