Drought tolerance improvement in crop plants: An integrated view from breeding to genomics (2008, background): “effectiveness of QTL-MAS versus standard breeding strategies in commercial programs still needs to be accurately evaluated (Barker et al., 2005).”
Predicting the future of plant breeding: complementing empirical evaluation with genetic prediction (2014, methodology): “Theutilisation of drought managed-environment methodology has been implemented by Pioneer for drought maize breeding in the US corn-belt (Barker et al. 2005; Cooper et al. 2014).”
Root traits contributing to plant productivity under drought (2013, background): “In a maize study for gene expression under drought, Barker et al. (2005) reported that 27% of gene expression was up- or down-regulated when stressed for 5 days in buckets as compared to only 5% differential regulation when plants were stressed over 5 weeks in the field.”
Genetic Improvement of Pearl Millet in India (2013, background): “Because of intrinsic difficulties in breeding for drought adaptation [10, 21], this field has become a prime focus for molecular marker-assisted breeding.”
Genetic improvement in density and nitrogen stress tolerance traits over 38 years of commercial maize hybrid release. (2016, background): “For instance, Barker et al. (2005) observed that a series of Pioneer ERA hybrids (1950–2001) had higher grain yield gain per year under well-watered than in drought stress conditions.”
Evaluation of drought tolerance of some corn (Zea mays L.) hybrids in Iran. (2010, unknown): “Several recent reviews are available (Barker et al., 2005; Cushman and Bohnert, 2000; Flowers, 2004; Hasegawa et al., 2000, Holmberg and Bulow, 1998; Ingram and Bartels, 1996; Munns, 2002).”
