Improved cyber-physical system captured post-flowering high night temperature impact on yield and quality of field grown wheat.

ABSTRACT: Winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is essential to maintain food security for a large proportion of the world's population. With increased risk from abiotic stresses due to climate variability, it is imperative to understand and minimize the negative impact of these stressors, including high night temperature (HNT). Both globally and at regional scales, a differential rate of increase in day and night temperature is observed, wherein night temperatures are increasing at a higher pace and the trend is projected to continue into the future. Previous studies using controlled environment facilities and small field-based removable chambers have shown that post-anthesis HNT stress can induce a significant reduction in wheat grain yield. A prototype was previously developed by utilizing field-ba
