Rice is the most important food crop in the developing world. For rice production systems to address the challenges of increasing demand and climate change, potential and on-farm yield increases must be increased. Breeding is one of the main strategies toward such aim. Here, we hypothesise that c...

Breeding implications of drought stress under future climate for upland rice in Brazil
The livelihood of approximately 37 million people of the East African (EA) region is highly dependent on livestock. As the pressure for livestock products heightens with growing populations, already harsh environmental conditions are predicted only to worsen (Fisher et al. 2005; Thornton et al. 2...

The wild relatives of crops represent a major source of valuable traits for crop improvement. These resources are threatened by habitat destruction, land use changes, and other factors, requiring their urgent collection and long-term availability for research and breeding from ex situ collections...

A gap analysis methodology for collecting crop genepools: a case study with Phaseolus beans
Reductions in agricultural productivity with consequences for food security associated to climate change are expected in the absence of adaptation. For common beans, across South America, a decrease in climatic suitability has been projected, with heat and drought stresses being the key drivers f...
