Drought Response and Recovery in Wild, Feral, and Domesticated Brassica rapa: Implications for Crop Climate Resilience
Drought poses a serious threat to agricultural production and food security. Wild relatives of crops, including pre-domesticated and feral varieties, contain genetic diversity that can serve as a breeding resource for increasing desirable crop traits such as drought resilience, but little is known about the relative ability of wild varieties to cope with climate change in most species. In this…
