Abstract excerpt
The need to address the impact of domestication on plant traits is frequently highlighted in modern agriculture. It is often argued that domesticated plants have lost competitive ability due to reduced phenotypic plasticity. This study investigates whether domestication has affected competitive ability, functional trait values, and plasticity in durum wheat across 39 genotypes representing four key stages of...
