| Abstract: | Key findings »» The most intense of three heat events averaged 35.5 °C and reduced grain numbers per spikelet by 21%. »» Significant genetic variation was observed for floret sterility induced by natural heat events. The variety Halberd was identified as most heat tolerant and Westonia as most sensitive. »» The results indicate a genetic variation that could be exploited to improve wheat crop resilience under heat stress. |
