Article Synopsis
- * An experiment was conducted using different salt concentrations to evaluate wheat genotypes for salinity tolerance based on morphophysiological traits, revealing that certain genotypes (G11, G13, G18, G22, G36) showed strong performance under salinity stress while others (G4, G17, G19, G30, G38) were more susceptible.
- * Analysis indicated significant genetic variation among wheat genotypes in response to salinity, highlighting that traits such as leaf water content were crucial for selecting more resilient varieties for
Article Synopsis
- Understanding the genetic factors that affect wheat yield and drought tolerance is crucial for improving wheat breeding practices, and a genome-wide association study was conducted using a high-density SNP array to analyze various wheat genotypes.
- The study involved phenotyping wheat accessions grown under both normal and water-stressed conditions, revealing significant differences in yield and drought-related traits, and identifying correlations between grain yield and relative water content.
- A total of 134 significant SNPs were linked to yield and drought tolerance, with the discovery of novel markers and the identification of 171 candidate genes that could enhance our understanding and breeding of drought-resistant wheat.
