Abstract excerpt
There is increasing awareness that epistasis plays a role for the determination of complex traits. This study employed an association mapping approach in a large panel of 455 diverse European elite soft winter wheat lines. The genotypes were evaluated in multi-environment trials and fingerprinted with SSR markers to dissect the underlying genetic architecture of grain yield and heading time. A linear mixed model...
