Abstract:The aim of this study was to investigate the potential of highly heterogeneous bulk populations ("Composite CrossPopulations", CCP) to increase sustainability and resilience of wheat cropping, a so far largely neglected approach. For this purpose, 10 CCP, generated in 2001, based on the same set of 20 older varieties, but evolved under different environmental conditions were compared with 10 recent cultivars and 10 inbred lines extracted randomly from the populations. The trials were performed over 2 years at … Show more
