Senescence is a developmental process which in annual crop plants overlaps with the
reproductive phase. Senescence might reduce crop yield when it is induced prematurely …

The yield losses in cereal crops because of abiotic stress and the expected huge losses
from climate change indicate our urgent need for useful traits to achieve food security. The …

Securing food production for the growing population will require closing the gap between
potential crop productivity under optimal conditions and the yield captured by farmers under …

Agricultural intensification with modern plant breeding focuses on few high-yielding crops
and varieties. The loss of traditional crop species and variety diversity contributes to the …

Drought is a leading abiotic constraints for onion production globally. Breeding by using
unique genetic resources for drought tolerance is a vital mitigation strategy. With a total of …

Durum wheat production in southern Australia is limited when water deficit occurs
immediately before and during anthesis. This study was conducted to determine the effect of …

In order to detect markers for drought stress tolerance, field experiments in Ethiopia were
conducted for three years at two naturally drought-prone locations and two optimum …

Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is a major food crop in Ethiopia. A high inter-annual rainfall
variability, concomitant variable planting dates and unpredictable drought stress at any time …

This study maps genomic regions associated with terminal heat-and drought-stress
tolerance in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.). One hundred lines were randomly sampled from a …

Abstract Changes in physiological parameters (relative water content (RWC), biomass,
water use efficiency (WUE), net photosynthetic yield (PN) and quantum yield of PSII (F v/F …
