Salinity is a global threat to crop production, reducing yields and jeopardizing food and nutrition security. This study was performed to evaluate the salinity tolerance of high-yielding commercial tomato ‘Super Sweet F 1 ’(SS), which was self-grafted, or cross-grafted with salt-tolerant rootstocks ‘Maxifort F 1 ’ (MF), ‘Pimp-M021’(PM), and ‘Ramsi’ (RM). The plants were evaluated at low (18.2 mM NaCl) and high-water salinity (...

Given its high nutritional value and capacity to grow in harsh environments, quinoa has significant potential to address a range of food security concerns. Monitoring the development of phenotypic traits during field trials can provide insights into the varieties best suited to specific environmental conditions and management strategies. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) provide a promising means for phenotyping and offer the po...

Key message Novel QTL for salinity tolerance traits have been detected using non-destructive and destructive phenotyping in bread wheat and were shown to be linked to improvements in yield in saline fields. Abstract Soil salinity is a major limitation to cereal production. Breeding new salt-tolerant cultivars has the potential to improve cereal crop yields. In this study, a doubled haploid bread wheat mapping population, deriv...
