The Role of Breeding in Increasing the Adaptation of Crops to Climate Change in Conditions of Tajikistan The article presents scientific results on the creation of new promising varieties of a number of agricultural crops, which are currently widely cultivated in the lands of farms in Tajikistan. Based on the analysis of the work of local and foreign breeders, it was found that in the future, such breeding methods as remote interspecific hybridization, mutagenesis and introduction will play an important role in the adaptation of agricultural crops to climate change. Due to the fact that global climate change causes an increase in air temperature, an increase in the level of soil salinity, a lack of moisture in the soil, an increase in the number of pests and plant diseases, etc., it is necessary to strengthen breeding and genetic research in the future. In this regard, the goal of our long-term breeding work was to obtain new intensive varieties of such important agricultural crop...
