Trait-based model development to support breeding programs. A case study for salt tolerance and rice

Abstract Eco-physiological models are increasingly used to analyze G × E × M interactions to support breeding programs via the design of ideotypes for specific contexts. However, available crop models are only partly suitable for this purpose, since they often lack clear relationships between parame...
