Significant variation in grain iron and zinc content was observed among 280 wheat genotypes under heat and drought stress conditions.
Through GWAS, 37 significant markers were identified, including 14 for grain iron content and 11 for grain zinc content.
Multivariate analysis revealed nine genotypes excelling in grain iron and zinc content across all stress conditions.
Findings support the development of nutrient-dense wheat varieties, aiding in biofortification efforts for micronutrients.
