Blueberries
are one of the most popular berries consumed by people around the world. There
are large areas of blueberry cultivation especially in the northern regions of
America and Europe. In addition to these areas, blueberries are also cultivated
in many other countries in the world, but climate change is more effective in
newly planted blueberry areas. Therefore, changes in ecological conditions such
as soil properties, temperature, humidity, insolation and similar ecological
conditions may have positive or negative effects on the distribution areas of
different varieties. In addition to projections based on many meteorological
factors, it is necessary to identify varieties suitable for new areas. In
addition, resistance to climatic changes will be the most important breeding
criterion when developing new varieties. New climatic conditions that may occur
have the potential to increase stress in plants and cause an increase in
diseases and pests. It is also seen that different regions may come to the
forefront in terms of yield and marketing.
