Rethinking yield stability through phenotypic plasticity and its link to modern statistical methods.

Abstract excerpt

In the context of advocacy for yield stability, trade-offs between yield and yield stability, the frequent lack of definitions, and the variation in methods when they are explicit, this review connects two perspectives: phenotypic plasticity and factor analytics. Phenotypic plasticity brings over a century of research in developmental biology, ecology, and evolution, and is gaining traction in crop science....
