Abstract excerpt
A wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) line 4844 with superior numbers of florets and grains per spike was derived from the cross between Fukohokomugi wheat and Agropyron cristatum (L.) Gaertn. In order to determine the genetic control of floret and kernel number per spike in this line, chromosome addition and substitution lines that were derived from line 4844 were characterized by means of in situ hybridization,...
