摘要: Yield reliability under diverse environments is important to address climate stress consequences in wheat production systems. Breeding for reliability under a changing climate remains a challenge in wheat. We assessed the performance of 18 hexaploid (Triticum aestivum L.) genotypes in three field environments at a location within the semi-arid Canadian Prairies over four years with a primary aim to establish knowledge of the phenotypic plasticity and yield reliability in the parental lines as it relates to heat and drought stress tolerance. We collected data on various physiological traits along with some agronomic and morphological attributes, uncovering significant variation across early seeded rainfed, early seeded irrigated, and late seeded rainfed (hot and dry) environments. Eight high yielding hexaploid genotypes '01S0263-28', 'AC Foremost', AC Karma', 'Cutler', 'MN03358-4', 'Reeder', 'Stettler', and 'Superb' showed higher grain Delta 13C. Six of these genotypes '01S0263-28', 'AC Foremost', 'MN03358-4', 'Reeder', 'Stettler', and 'Superb' showed higher water use efficiency under irrigated as well as hot and dry environment compared to the low yielding lines 'Red Fife','8021-V2' and 'BW278'. Only four genotypes '01S0263-28', 'MN03358-4', 'Reeder', and 'Stettler' were found with higher yield reliability index. The grain yield relationship with leaf rolling, glaucousness, and canopy temperature was found to be weak. The flag leaf stomatal numbers increased with water stress in high yielding lines which were otherwise low in stomatal numbers. Contrastingly, water stress significantly reduced the stomatal numbers in low yielding lines that were otherwise high in stomatal numbers. The results highlight the stomatal adaptability of different genotypes in response to drought. Taken together, these results provide baseline information that the genotypes with high grain Delta 13C and WUE, and low stomata numbers are more yield reliable under variable field environments, and this information can guide the breeding of climate-resilient germplasm that expresses consistent and reliable grain yield production in the semi-arid Prairies.
