Wild Wheat Relatives: Developing Abiotic Stress Tolerance under Climate Change presents the state-of-the-art outline of the problem issues, opportunities, and modern developments in the utilization of Wild Wheat Relatives (WWR) and related neglected species for wheat crop improvement specifically focusing the environmental constraints. Wheat is a major staple food crop that has largely been focused for fulfilling the food requirements of world population during the Green revolution. Since then, it has come to cover more agricultural land than any other commercial crop. Continuously changing climatic conditions have drastically affected the wheat production in recent years, however, and its yield has been largely limited by environmental constraints. The production losses caused by crop vulnerability to climate change may be resolved by using wheat wild relatives that are closely related to cultivated genotypes and are known for their beneficial traits. This book comprehensively discusses different wheat wild relatives including major genus Triticum and Aegilops and their utilization in mitigating different environmental constraints using agronomic, physiological, and molecular approaches. Chapters provide insights into the advancement in the deployment of wheat genetic resources including wild relatives and neglected species for crop improvement towards environmental issues. Covers a variety of wheat genetic resources including wheat wild relatives (WWR) and neglected wheat speciesDescribes advances in agronomic, biochemical, physiological, and molecular approaches to counter the effect of individual environmental issues of drought, heat, salt, cold, nutrients and heavy metals constraintsExplores the benefits of contemporary biotechnological tools including whole genome sequencing, and genome editing
