Abstract:Extreme environmental variability requires the identification of genetic diversity that can help crops withstand difficult abiotic conditions. Understanding the genetic basis of adaptation to abiotic stress can provide tools for adapting agriculture to changing climates. Crop landraces and their wild ancestors from centers of domestication have often evolved across diverse environmental conditions and provide a unique opportunity to locate loci harboring alleles that could contribute to abiotic stress toleranc… Show more
