Abstract excerpt
Effective tiller number is one of the most important traits for wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) yield, but the inheritance of tillering is poorly understood. A set of 168 doubled haploid (DH) lines derivatives of a cross between two winter wheat cultivars (Huapei 3 and Yumai 57), and an immortalized F(2) (IF(2)) population generated by randomly permutated intermating of these DHs were investigated, and QTLs of...
