Detailed target product profiles for CIMMYT spring wheat breeding 2022. The product profiles are the trait specifications for selection and release of material from the five CIMMYT spring wheat breeding pipelines: (1) Hard white, optimum environment; (2) Hard white, heat tolerant, early maturity; (3) Hard white, drought tolerant, normal maturity; (4) Hard white, drought tolerant, early maturity and (5) Hard white/red, high rainfall. These five pipelines target eight global market segments in Latin America and the Caribbean, East Africa, Central Asia, West Asia and North Africa and South Asia. Product profiles are defined as in the Excellence in Breeding Toolbox for “product design and management” (https://excellenceinbreeding.org/toolbox/tools/cgiar-seed-product-market-segment-database). Traits include grain and processing traits, nutritional enhancement, agronomic and disease traits. For spring wheat, no specific production, multiplication, or unique product registration traits apply in 2022 so these fields in the product profiles are marked as not applicable (NA). Traits are listed by category and assigned a measurement scale which is used in selection along with a minimum score. The traits are differentiated by requirement: either as “essential” or “nice to have” as well as the requirement for improvement (vs. maintenance). Indication of a trait as a threshold trait indicates it is a requirement for release of material from the breeding pipeline.
