Abstract

This chapter provides an analysis of the processes determining the yield potential of wheat crops. The structure and function of the wheat crop will be pre­sented and the influence of the environment and genetics on crop growth and devel­opment will be examined. Plant breeding strategies for raising yield potential will be described, with particular emphasis on factors controlling photosynthetic capac­ity and grain sink strength.
