Genetic Dissection of Drought Tolerance of Elite Bread Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Genotypes Using Genome Wide Association Study in Morocco by Zakaria, EL Gataa, Karima, Samir, Tadesse, Wuletaw

“…Identification and deployment of drought-tolerant wheat varieties are important to cope with the challenge of terminal moisture stress and increase wheat productivity. A panel composed of 200 elite spring bread wheat genotypes was phenotyped for yield and agronomic traits for 2 years (2020 and 2021) in Morocco under rainfed and irrigated environments. …”

Assessing climate change impacts on water resources and Colorado agriculture using an equilibrium Displacement Mathematical Programming Model by Fathelrahman, Eihab, Davies, Amalia, Davies, Stephen, Pritchett, James

“…Most agriculture is based on irrigated production, which depends on both groundwater, especially from the Ogallala aquifer, and surface water that comes from runoff derived from snowpack in the Rocky Mountains. The analysis is composed of a Base simulation, designed to represent selected features of the agricultural economy several decades in the future, and then three alternative climatic scenarios are run. …”

Multi-trait genomic prediction models enhance the predictive ability of grain trace elements in rice by Muvunyi, Blaise Pascal, Zou, Wenli, Zhan, Junhui, He, Sang, Ye, Guoyou

“…The predictive performance of MT models compared to a traditional single trait (ST) model was assessed by 1) applying different cross-validation strategies (CV1, CV2, and CV3) inferring varied phenotyping patterns and budgets; 2) accounting for local epistatic effects along with the main additive effect in MT models; and 3) using a selective marker panel composed of trait-associated SNPs in MT models. MT models were not statistically significantly (p andlt; 0.05) superior to ST model under CV1, where no phenotypic information was available for the accessions in the test set. …”
