Climate change will influence disease resistance breeding in wheat in Northwestern Europe

Thomas Miedaner et al.

Summary: Global climate change poses a threat to wheat productivity, requiring the breeding of disease resistance to maintain crop yields; multi-disease resistance will be crucial, and future resistance breeding strategies need to be adjusted based on disease risks and climate change.

Resistance Breeding Increases Winter Wheat Gross Margins-An Economic Assessment for Germany

Sophia Luettringhaus et al.

Summary: The economic analysis of 50 years of resistance breeding for winter wheat production in Germany shows that breeding for increased resistance to fungal pathogens has significantly improved the economic profitability and sustainability of crop production by reducing fungicide costs and increasing crop health levels. The study also suggests that resistance breeding can further enhance winter wheat gross margins and alleviate pressures on agricultural productions such as reduced disease management options and impacts of climate change.
