The wheat gene pool has a tremendous amount of genetic diversity for salinity tolerance.
During the last few decades, several wheat genetic stocks have been developed showing all …

High stability of crop yields is a key objective in crop production and breeding, especially
under the conditions of a changing climate. Reliable indices are therefore needed for …

Taylor's power law (TPL) describes the empirical relationship σ 2= aμ b where σ 2 are
sample variances and μ are sample means in subsets of data in a data set. Equivalently …

Egypt, the fifteenth most populated country and the largest wheat importer worldwide, is
vulnerable to global warming. Ten of the commercial and widely grown wheat cultivars were …

Breeding of high-yielding and stable durum wheat varieties with improved kernel
characteristics is needed for dry regions around the globe. The aim of this study was to …

Understanding the genetic basis of performance stability is essential to maintain productivity,
especially under severe conditions. In the present study, 268 Iranian bread wheat landraces …

Cultivating cereals in monoculture systems contributes to the decrease in grain yield and
quality. Currently, under Mediterranean climate conditions of Tunisia, wheat mono-crop** …

Background: Tunisia harbors a rich collection of unexploited durum wheat landraces
(Triticum durum ssp. durum) that have been gradually replaced by elite cultivars since the …

Water management in agricultural lands largely depends on quantity and quality of available
soil and water resources. In arid and semi arid regions, scarcity of fresh water and soil …

In Mediterranean regions, the performance of durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. var. durum
