Abstract:Since its first cultivation, hexaploid wheat has evolved, allowing for its widespread cultivation and contributing to global food security. The identification of adaptive genes, such as vernalization and photoperiod response genes, has played a crucial role in optimizing wheat production, being instrumental in fine-tuning flowering and reproductive cycles in response to changing climates and evolving agricultural practices. While these adaptive genes have expanded the range of variation suitable for adaptation… Show more
