- Abstract
This document, titled "Genetic Identification and Characterisation of Crop Agronomic Traits and Stress Resistance," discusses the importance of enhancing crop agronomic traits and stress resilience for food security and sustainable agriculture. It highlights various genetic tools and methodologies that have been used to identify genomic regions associated with important agronomic traits and stress responses in crops. The document includes five original research articles and one review article on crop breeding and genetics, covering topics such as low-temperature tolerance in soybean, bacterial leaf blight resistance in rice, salt tolerance in cotton, drought tolerance in upland cotton, and agro-morphological and biochemical responses of wheat to salinity stress. The document also reviews the impact of heat stress on plant reproduction and discusses the potential for gene-editing techniques to enhance heat stress tolerance. Overall, the findings provide valuable insights for crop improvement programs and offer the potential to develop improved cultivars with enhanced yield potential, nutritional quality, and resilience to biotic and abiotic stresses.
