Wheat is the most widely grown food crop, with 761 Mt produced globally in 2020. To meet the expected grain demand by mid-century, wheat breeding strategies must continue to improve upon yield-advancing physiological traits, regardless of climate change impacts. Here, the best performing doubled haploid (DH) crosses with an increased canopy photosynthesis from wheat field experiments in the literature were extrapolated to the global scale with a multi-model ensemble of process-based wheat crop models to estimate global wheat production. The DH field experiments were also used to determine a quantitative relationship between wheat production and solar radiation to estimate genetic yield potential. The multi-model ensemble projected a global annual wheat production of 1050 ± 145 Mt due to the improved canopy photosynthesis, a 37% increase, without expanding cropping area. Achieving this genetic yield potential would meet the lower estimate of the projected grain demand in 2050, albeit with considerable challenges.

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2020-09-15 Kansas Wheat Alliance Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station (KAES) The complex and interactive effects of genotype (G), environment (E), and management (M) can be a barrier to the development of sound agronomic recommendations. We hypothesize that long-term variety performance trials (VPT) can be used to understand these effects and improve regional recommendations. Our objective was to explore long-term VPT data to improve management and variety-selection recommendations using winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) in the U.S. central Great Plains as a case-study. Data of grain yield, variety, and trial management were collected from 748 wheat VPT conducted in the states of Colorado, Kansas, and Oklahoma over nineteen harvest years (2000-2018) and 92 locations, resulting in 97,996 yield observations. Using 30-yr cumulative annual precipitation and growing degrees days, we partitioned the study region into 11 contiguous sub-regions, which we refer to as growing adaptation regions (GAR). We used variance component analysis, gradient boosted trees, and conditional inference trees to explore the management and variety trait effects within each GAR. For the variety trait analysis, the VPT dataset was reduced to account for varieties for which 17 agronomic traits and 11 disease/insect reaction ratings were available (65,264 yield observations). GAR accounted for 46 % of the total variation in grain yield, M for 32 %, residuals (including interactions) for 13 %, year for 7 %, and G for 2 %. Conditional inference trees identified interactions among management practices and their effects on yield within each GAR. For instance, water regime was the most important practice influencing wheat yield in the semi-arid western portion of the study region, followed by sowing date and fungicide. In dryland trials, there was typically an interaction between fungicide, sowing date, and tillage system, depending on GAR. Other management practices (e.g. dual-purpose management, crop rotation, and tillage practice) also significantly affected yield, depending on GAR. The main variety trait associated with increased yields depended on region and management combination. For instance, drought tolerance was the most important trait in dryland trials while stripe rust tolerance was more relevant in irrigated trials in the semi-arid region. In this research, we demonstrated an approach that uses widely available long-term VPT data to improve management and variety selection recommendations and can be used in other regions and crops for which long-term VPT data are available.

All data are available via DOI http://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/ECSFZG, he data set contains a portion of the International Heat Stress Genotype Experiment (IHSGE) data used in the AgMIP-Wheat project to analyze the uncertainty of 30 wheat crop models and quantify the impact of heat on global wheat yield productivity. It includes two spring wheat cultivars grown during two consecutive winter cropping cycles at hot, irrigated, and low latitude sites in Mexico (Ciudad Obregon and Tlaltizapan), Egypt (Aswan), India (Dharwar), the Sudan (Wad Medani), and Bangladesh (Dinajpur). Experiments in Mexico included normal (November-December) and late (January-March) sowing dates. Data include local daily weather data, soil characteristics and initial soil conditions, crop measurements (anthesis and maturity dates, anthesis and final total above ground biomass, final grain yields and yields components), and cultivar information. Simulations include both daily in-season and end-of-season results from 30 wheat models.

The potential impact of global temperature change on global crop yield has recently been assessed with different methods. Here we show that grid-based and point-based simulations and statistical regressions (from historic records), without deliberate adaptation or CO2 fertilization effects, produce similar estimates of temperature impact on wheat yields at global and national scales. With a 1 °C global temperature increase, global wheat yield is projected to decline between 4.1% and 6.4%. Projected relative temperature impacts from different methods were similar for major wheat-producing countries China, India, USA and France, but less so for Russia. Point-based and grid-based simulations, and to some extent the statistical regressions, were consistent in projecting that warmer regions are likely to suffer more yield loss with increasing temperature than cooler regions. By forming a multi-method ensemble, it was possible to quantify ‘method uncertainty’ in addition to model uncertainty. This significantly improves confidence in estimates of climate impacts on global food security.

Crossing programs based on phenomics have resulted in a new generation of drought adapted wheat lines based on strategic crossing of complementary physiological traits (PT) that have been included in CIMMYT's international distribution system since 2010. New PT lines have shown superior performance over conventional material in most international environments. For example, in the 17th SAWYT the average yield of PT lines was larger than the group of conventionally bred lines at 75% of international sites. This ongoing effort has involved broadening the genetic base of conventional wheat genepools through extensive use of genetic resources, including landraces and products of inter-specific hybridization with members of the Triticeae tribe. One of the prerequisites for successful application of phenomics in breeding is the establishment of reliable screening tools and platforms that can precisely measure expression of physiological traits in realistic field environments. Genetic gains associated with selection for canopy temperature and spectral water indices have shown that such remotely sensed traits can serve as proxies that reliably estimate water relations characteristics impacting on yield. The first aerial remote sensing platforms for large scale genetic resource screening was developed at CIMMYT in Mexico and more than half of the accessions of the World Wheat Collection have been screened. These high throughput field phenotyping tools have application in gene discovery and QTL for both drought and heat adaptive traits have been identified on 4 different chromosomes of the Seri/Babax RILs population, showing for the first time a common genetic basis for these key abiotic stresses. Similarly the phenology- controlled ‘Wheat Association Mapping Initiative’ panel has been used for gene discovery work. To define the best constellation of traits for application in breeding -and determine priorities for genetic understanding- it is necessary to develop conceptual models of adaptive traits that highlight wheat's genetic limitations under water limitation; pre-breeding serves as a practical tool to test different models.
