Abstract:Drought is the most limiting environmental factor affecting wheat growth and productivity and thus, breeding for drought tolerance is a main objective for cereal breeders. Progress in drought tolerance breeding of wheat depends upon genetic diversity existing among genotypes about of their responses to different stressors. One of the physiological parameter is the osmotic adjustment can be enhanced through selection and breeding. Osmotic adjustment is the only cellular process that is activated under water str… Show more
