Abstract excerpt
Investigation of low-temperature (LT) tolerance in cereals has commonly led to the region of the vyn-A1 vernalization gene or its homologue in related genomes. Two cultivars, one a non-hardy spring wheat and one a very cold-hardy winter wheat, whose growth habits are determined by the Vrn-A1 (spring habit) and vrn-A1 (winter habit) alleles, were chosen to produce reciprocal near-isogenic lines (NILs). These lines...
