A strategy of ideotype development for heat‐tolerant wheat

Heat stress significantly limits yield in many wheat‐growing areas globally including north‐western NSW. While various traits linked to high‐temperature tolerance have been identified, the combination of traits that optimize the heat tolerance of wheat has not been established in most environments. A total of 554 genotypes were evaluated in the field at different times of sowing in north‐western NSW for three consecutive years to develop a...
