TL;DR: Landraces of wheat, collected from the Western Balkans, were considered as a potential genetic resource of drought resistance for wheat breeding and relatively wide diversity was found for most of the traits that can be exploited for improving drought tolerance of new varieties for the variable rainfed conditions of south-eastern Europe.

TL;DR: Total biomass and early vigour were found to be the most important agronomic traits for selecting high-yielding genotypes in a range of stress and non-stress conditions.

TL;DR: Assessment of drought tolerance and regional-based patterns of diversity of bread wheat accessions and new sources of diversity that could accelerate the development of improved wheat varieties better suited to meeting the challenges posed by changing climate revealed that the genotypes from North America exhibited more genetic diversity than those from other regions.

TL;DR: Gliadin proteins extracted from fifteen Chinese and Yugoslav winter wheat cultivars were fractionated using a new separation technique – Capillary Zone Electrophoresis (CZE), showing clear qualitative and quantitative differences, including presence or absence of some major peak, migration times and heights of peaks.

TL;DR: The presented research shows that indigenous bacterial isolates 6sy and 24p, selected from oil hydrocarbons-contaminated environments, were capable of utilizing MTBE as sole carbon and energy source.
