Abstract excerpt
Earliness, an adaptative trait and factor of variation for agronomic characters, is a major trait in plant breeding. Its constituent traits, photoperiod sensitivity (PS), vernalization requirement (VR) and intrinsic earliness (IE), are largely under independent genetic controls. Mapping of major genes and quantitative trait loci (QTL) controlling these components is in progress. Most of the studies focusing on...
