Phenotypic data of HIBAP I panel evaluated under yield potential and heat stress conditions during Obregon wheat seasons 2015-16 and 2016-17. Combined data across years per environment. The HIBAP I panel is comprised of 149 high biomass spring wheat lines of a variety of elite and exotic backgrounds. It was demonstrated how strategic integration of exotic material significantly increases yield under
heat stress compared to elite lines, with no significant yield penalty under favourable conditions. Through genome wide association analysis three marker trait associations were revealed. The yield increase was associated with lower canopy temperature. An Aegilops tauschii introgression was identified as the most significant of these associations. Publicly available sequencing data used in this study is available at the European Nucleotide Archive (ENA).
