Additive Effects Dominate Legume Responses to Combined Heat and Drought Stress: A Quantitative Review

This study quantifies how legumes respond to combined heat and drought stress, finding that additive effects dominate over synergistic or antagonistic interactions.

Rethinking yield stability through phenotypic plasticity and its link to modern statistical methods

The paper connects phenotypic plasticity with factor analytic models to assess yield stability in crops, showing positive correlation with adaptive plasticity and negative with maladaptive.

Scaling law links plant growth variation to grain yield in wheat stands

The paper links growth allometry in wheat to grain yield by analyzing genetic and phenotypic variation across cultivars in controlled and field conditions.

Spatial probabilistic patterns of joint heat and water stress of chickpea in Australia

The paper assesses climate factors' associations with chickpea yield and identifies spatial probabilistic patterns of heat and water stress in Australia, showing increased stress frequency with climate change.

Genetic modulation of yield and phenotypic plasticity of yield in winter wheat

The paper examines trends in yield phenotypic plasticity and heritability in winter wheat cultivars over time, finding increased plasticity and decreased heritability, with genomic regions for yield varying by environment.

Linking phenology, harvest index and genetics to improve chickpea grain yield

This study links phenology, harvest index, and genetics in chickpea to improve grain yield by analyzing 24 genotypes across 12 environments.

The causal arrows - from genotype, environment and management to plant phenotype - are double headed

The paper highlights the bidirectional relationships in the G x E x M model, showing how plant phenotype influences genotype, environment, and management.

Bread and hummus: trait connectance and correlation pleiades in grain crops

The paper analyzes trait connectance and correlation pleiades in wheat and chickpea using two datasets, finding power law distributions and relationships between heritability, phenotypic plasticity, and connectance.
