Screening for drought tolerance and genetic diversity of wheat varieties using agronomic and molecular markers

CONCLUSIONS: Taken together, the combination of agronomic and molecular approaches revealed that Karim, Td7, D117 and Utique are the most drought-tolerant wheat varieties. These varieties are particularly promising candidates for genetic improvements and can be utilized as potential genitors for future breeding programs in arid and semi-arid regions.PMID:38520570 | DOI:10.1007/s11033-024-09340-9
