Closing the yield gap is essential for global food security and for farmers who face increasing costs of production. Recent work showed that Australia's wheat growers are …
Changes in the sequence of crops grown on agricultural land are well known to enhance the yield of grain crops such as wheat. A survey of the literature gathered from around the world …

Two experiments were conducted on stress-tolerant Suneca and stress-susceptible Batavia wheat varieties which were grown in pots in a temperature-controlled naturally illuminated …
Whereas the concept that availability of resources drives seed production is sound in principle, it is incomplete as there are many solutions to the allocation of resources that …
This review deals with improving the performance of dryland crops in dry, mainly semiarid, environments. Although such crops are often limited by water, the development of the notion …
