ABSTRACT Wheat, a major staple crop, is critical for global food security. However, abiotic stresses, particularly heat stress, threaten crop productivity. With climate change predicted to increase temperatures by around 1.5°C 2050, productivity could be severely affected. Given ongoing hunger‐related challenges and the growing population, developing varieties with improved tolerance stresses essential. Plant breeders have long used natural stress of crops, selectively breeding cultivars capable thriving in adverse conditions. Molecular tools further advanced this success, allowing identifying manipulating genes associated tolerance. Combining traditional methods innovative biotechnological has shown promising results stress‐resilient varieties. As technology continues evolve, policy interventions may become more affordable, enabling precise responses posed change. Wheat's capacity withstand influenced both phylogenetic environmental factors, as revealed quantitative trait locus mapping genome‐wide association studies. Recently, omics technologies—such genomics, transcriptomics, metabolomics, proteomics, phenomics, ionomics—have provided valuable insights into complex interactions between proteins, metabolites, that govern wheat phenotype. These approaches, supported computational bioinformatics, enable comprehensive understanding biological processes, aiding improvement Despite advancements, there remains lack in‐depth studies on precision wheat. This review seeks address gap examining various morphological, physiological, cellular, molecular adaptation mechanisms improve
