Abstract excerpt
Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is the second most important cereal crop after rice. Improving yield is crucial to address population growth and food security. Enhancing crop productivity requires structural modification in plant architecture, mainly the canopy, which improves photosynthetic activity and mitigates stresses such as heat and drought. In this study, we evaluated 161 wheat genotypes for canopy...
