In many Mediterranean regions, rainfall is expected to decrease and in many cases become scarcer and more irregular. Future projections show an increase in average and extreme temperatures in the Mediterranean area. Wheat is mostly grown on dry land, so it is likely to be more affected by periods of water stress due to more frequent droughts.
Consequently, it will be essential to know the new plant material that is more tolerant to high temperatures during the period of heading and grain filling, for which this project will focus mainly on determining the plant material that shows greater resilience to new climatic scenarios.
The GO_CLIMSOST TRIGO project aims to identify agronomic parameters that will allow us to determine, within the soft wheat plant material, those varieties that respond to the new demands of the production sector and society in Spain, mainly adaptation to climate change and reducing the impact on the rural environment.
- Obtain: Recommendation of soft wheat varieties that show better adaptation to situations with water stress.
- Proposal for soft wheat genotypes with greater tolerance to high temperatures during the grain formation and filling period.
- Cultivation strategies that incorporate plant material adapted to climate change and that improve the sustainability of bread wheat production.
- Plan for transfer and dissemination of results.
- Orientation of plant material that shows greater efficiency in nitrogen use.
- Recommendation of varieties with a higher tolerance to biotic agents causing foliar diseases in bread wheat crops.
- List of agronomic variables (indicators) related to the adaptation of soft wheat cultivation to climate change and sustainability.
The GO_CLIMSOST TRIGO project aims to identify agronomic parameters that will allow determining, within the soft wheat plant material, those varieties that respond to the new demands of the production sector and society in Spain, mainly adaptation to climate change and reducing the impact on the rural environment.
- The result will be a recommendation of the types of varieties best adapted to water deficit, which will help producers make decisions about the material to be planted when these scenarios of water stress, due to more frequent droughts, become more common.
