Nonstop Selection for High and Stable Crop Yield by Two Prognostic Equations to Reduce Yield Losses
Yield losses occurring at the field level, whether due to plant diseases or abiotic stresses, reveal reduced stability of the crop yield potential. The paper argues that the stability of crop yield potential is a trait with a clear genetic component, which can be successfully selected for at the sin...
