They include coffee, tea, coconut, cotton, jute, groundnut, castor, linseed, cocoa, rubber, cassava, soybean, sweet potato, potato, wheat, corn and teff. While some of these crops have been improved for realizing yield potential, breeding of many of them is still in infancy. Crops that underwent rigorous breeding have eventually lost much of the diversity due to extensive cultivation with a few improved varieties and the diversity in less bred species is to be conserved. Over the past years, scholars and policy makers have become increasingly aware of the short and long-run impact of climatic factors on economic, food security, social and political outcomes . Genetic diversity, natural and induced, is much needed for the future generations to sustain food production with more climate resilient crops. In contrast, crop uniformity produced across the farm fields in the form ofimproved varieties is genetically vulnerable to biotic and abiotic stresses. Thus, it is essential and challenging to address the issue of compromising between maximizing crop yield under a given set of conditions and minim | | 出版日期 | Book 2022 | | 关键词 | Plant breeding; Climate change; Sustainability; Plant abiotic stress; Plant biotic stress; Crop uniformit | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-74926-2 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-74928-6 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-74926-2 | | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2022 |
