R. M. Desai; S. B. Yadav; B. M. Chaudhari; et al. International Journal of Environment and Climate Change 2025. doi:10.9734/ijecc/2025/v15i95027
Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect In simulation, a +5 C rise in maximum temperature reduced wheat grain yield by 19.5-23.1%.
- Intervention effect In simulation, elevated minimum temperature reduced wheat productivity.
- Intervention effect GW 496 showed the highest loss under elevated Tmin, -27.3% at +5 C.
- Intervention effect In simulation, lower minimum temperatures improved wheat yields by up to 10.9%.
- Intervention effect Among the varieties, GW 496 exhibited the greatest sensitivity to temperature fluctuations.
- Intervention effect All wheat varieties responded positively to increased bright sunshine hours in simulation.
- Intervention effect All wheat varieties responded positively to CO2 enrichment in simulation.
- Recommendation Strategic management of sowing dates, irrigation and cultivar selection, combined with CO2 fertilisation benefits, could help sustain wheat production.
