Can Metabolite- and Transcript-Based Selection for Drought Tolerance in Solanum tuberosum Replace Selection on Yield in Arid Environments?
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Frontiers in Plant Science"
DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2020.01071
Abstract: Climate models predict an increased likelihood of drought, demanding efficient selection for drought tolerance to maintain yield stability. Classic tolerance breeding relies on selection for yield in arid environments, which depends on yield trials and… read more here.
