The Physiological Basis of Improved Heat Tolerance in Selected Emmer-Derived Hexaploid Wheat Genotypes

Wheat is sensitive to high-temperature stress with crop development significantly impaired depending on the severity and timing of stress. Various physiological mechanisms have been identified as selection targets for heat tolerance; however, the complex nature of the trait and high genotype × tempe...
