Discussion

Analysis reveals significant variation in morpho-physiological traits of 64 bread wheat genotypes, suggesting key traits for breeding programs.

Significant variability in morpho-physiological traits was observed among 64 genotypes of Triticum aestivum, enhancing breeding opportunities.
Cluster analysis identified six distinct groups, with Cluster II containing 19 genotypes showing high genetic diversity.
Principal component analysis indicated that key traits accounted for over 80% of the variance, critical for optimization in breeding.
Biplot analysis highlighted traits like grain yield and crude protein as essential, supporting future hybridization efforts.

Balda et al. (2025) studied this question.
