Abstract excerpt
Climate-induced heat and drought stress significantly reduce wheat productivity, posing a major challenge, identifying and developing tolerant wheat varieties is a key priority of modern breeding programs. The stay-green phenotype is characterized by sustained photosynthesis and extended grain-filling period under stress conditions, plays a pivotal role in enhancing tolerance. Here, we evaluated 4 commercial...
