Abstract
Enhanced grain yield has been achieved in bread wheat ( L.) through development and cultivation of superior genotypes incorporating yield-related agronomic and physiological traits derived from genetically diverse and complementary genetic pool. Despite significant breeding progress, yield levels in wheat have remained relatively low and stagnant under marginal growing environments. There is a need for genetic improvement of wheat using yield-promoting morpho-physiological attributes and desired genotypes under the target production environments to meet the demand for food and feed. This review presents breeding progress in wheat for yield gains using agronomic and physiological traits. Further, the paper discusses globally available wheat genetic resources to identify and select promising genotypes possessing useful agronomic and physiological traits to enhance water, nutrient-, and radiation-use efficiency to improve grain yield potential and tolerance to abiotic stresses (i.e. elevated CO, high temperature, and drought stresses). Finally, the paper highlights quantitative trait loci (QTL) linked to agronomic and physiological traits to aid breeding of high-performing wheat genotypes.
