Climate change may outpace current wheat breeding yield improvements in North America
T. Zhang, Y. He, et al.
This research, conducted by Tianyi Zhang and collaborators, investigates the genetic progress of wheat in North America amid changing climate conditions. Findings reveal that while winter wheat breeds demonstrate resilience, spring wheat varieties are becoming more vulnerable to temperature increases. Alarmingly, both types are predicted to face yield reductions in future climate scenarios.
