Drought Stress and Spring Wheat

Drought Stress and Spring Wheat

0 - Default Title
Description
This book explores the impact of drought stress on morpho-yield traits of spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), one of the world's most important cereal crops. With climate change and water scarcity posing serious threats to global food security, understanding how wheat genotypes respond to water stress is crucial. The research evaluates thirteen genotypes and three check varieties under varying irrigation treatments to assess their tolerance, yield performance, and adaptive traits. Key traits such as heading time, plant height, tiller number, spike length, grain number, thousand-grain weight, biological yield, and harvest index were measured. The study identifies drought-tolerant genotypes and provides insights into their potential for breeding programs aimed at improving wheat productivity under limited water conditions. This work contributes to sustainable agriculture by addressing challenges of food production in water-stressed environments.
