Abstract excerpt
Wheat, a major staple crop, contributes significantly to global protein and calorie intake. However, the increasing challenges posed by climate change and a growing population threaten its stable production. Pre-harvest sprouting (PHS), triggered by prolonged rainfall and humidity before harvest, significantly reduces wheat grain yield and quality. This study is the first to assess PHS tolerance (PHST) in a...
