A modified bulk-pedigree method is used to advance breeding material through the breeding program. Due to the complexity of market and environmental conditions, regionally and locally adapted cultivars need to be developed to meet the demands of the wheat market. Multiple market classes of wheat are grown in the U.S. Wheat is the primary food grain consumed directly by humans worldwide, and more land around the globe is devoted to the production of wheat than to any other commercial crop. Because of this, plant breeders constantly strive to develop new cultivars that build upon the traits in current cultivars, thereby progressing toward this goal. Non Technical Summary No single wheat cultivar has all of the traits needed to produce a wheat crop at the lowest input, lowest risk, and highest marketability.
