The book comprises the proceedings of the 7th International
Wheat Conference, held in Mar del Plata, Argentina, at the end of
2005. Leading scientists from all over the world, specialized in
different areas that contribute to the better understanding of
wheat production and use, reviewed the present achievements and
discussed the future challenges for the wheat crop. The latter are
related to producing safe wheat grain in increasingly stressed
environments, maintaining at the same time the sustainability of
natural resources, in order to meet the needs of food for a growing
population.
Topics such as breeding for resistance to biotic and abiotic
stresses, breeding for improved industrial and nutritional quality,
crop and natural resources management, physiology of wheat
production, biotechnology and cytogenetics, and conservation and
management of genetic resources were covered during the Conference.
Results of the extended use of molecular tools in different areas
and their contribution to the faster achievement of breeding goals
were presented.
This book provides the scientific wheat community with the
possibility of getting key contributions to that overall sight and
an updated view of the main points of interest in those fields of
research.
