This paper reviews the strategy employed for breeding wheat tolerant to high concentrations of boron (B). Similar methods have also been adopted for most other agricultural species of southern Australia, including barley, oats, peas, and pasture medics. The general steps involved in breeding for tolerance or resistance to an environmental stress are listed. Topics discussed include screening procedures, sources of tolerance, genetic control, and the backcrossing method for transferring tolerance
