Integrative multi-omics for decoding and breeding wheat resilience to combined drought and salinity stress

Wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) productivity is increasingly threatened by the co-occurrence of drought and salinity in water-limited and salt-affected agroecosystems. Their combination creates a distinct stress environment in which restricted water uptake interacts with ion toxicity, nutrient imbalance, oxidative...
