Good Success In Search For Drouth Resisting Wheat
Dr. C. B. Aamodt of the University of Alberta reports progress on a drouth resisting wheat aimed at high quality. The aim is rapid recovery after wilt and dormancy during dry spells, with early growth protected during the critical shoot period. Tests show the hybrid resists wilting through the shooting period, reducing danger to seedlings and highlighting a broader focus on above ground parts in prior studies.
