The team found that the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) was the most accurate spectral reflectance index for predicting drought tolerance and grain yield in quinoa while leaf greenness index and grain yield were important parameters for identifying quinoa heat tolerance. Of the genotypes adapted to the Pacific Northwest, QQ74, Baer, and Pison were identified as having the greatest heat tolerance.
