Main conclusion Droughts negatively affect sorghum's productivity and nutritional quality.
Across its diversity centers, however, there exist resilient genotypes that function differently …

Improving crops yield under water-limited conditions is the most daunting challenge faced
by breeders. To this end, accurate, relevant phenoty** plays an increasingly pivotal role …

Root endophytes have been shown to have important roles in determining host fitness under
periods of drought stress, and yet the effect of drought on the broader root endosphere …

Genotype-by-environment interaction (GEI) is an important phenomenon in plant breeding.
This paper presents a series of models for describing, exploring, understanding, and …

There is considerable interest in the occurrence and molecular mechanisms of phenotypic
plasticity and genotype-by-environment interactions (G× E) in plant populations. The …

The reduction in the precipitation level and the occurrence of frequent drought will be among
the top future worries for humans to tackle on this planet. Globally 80% of the agricultural …

Improving environmental adaptation in crops is essential for food security under global
change, but phenoty** adaptive traits remains a major bottleneck. If associations between …

Plant growth and development are influenced by the genetic composition of the plant (G),
the environment (E), and the interaction between them (G× E). To produce suitable …

Grasslands dominate the terrestrial landscape, and grasses have evolved complex and
elegant strategies to overcome abiotic stresses. The C4 grasses are particularly stress …

Green Revolution (GR) rice varieties are high yielding but typically drought sensitive. This is
partly due to the tight linkage between the loci governing plant height and drought tolerance …
