Genetic diversity of Ethiopian durum wheat ( subsp. ) landraces under water stressed and non stressed conditions.

Ethiopia, being a major center of origin and diversity for durum wheat, possesses a highly variable genetic pool with diverse agroecological adaptations. Wheat landraces are an important source of genetic variation for breeding programs. This study was conducted to study the genotypic diversity of Ethiopian durum wheat genetic resources under two contrasting environments namely drought-stressed and non-stressed.
