Varieties resistant to abiotic stresses play a vital role in crop production by ensuring resilience against environmental challenges. These stresses, such as drought, salinity, and extreme temperatures, can adversely affect crop growth and yield. Resistant varieties mitigate these impacts, enabling cultivation in marginal environments and reducing yield losses. They contribute to food security and sustainability by enhancing crop productivity and farmer resilience to changing climatic conditions.
