Abstract excerpt
Identification of alleles towards the selection for improved seedling vigour is a key objective of many wheat breeding programmes. A multiparent advanced generation intercross (MAGIC) population developed from four commercial spring wheat cultivars (cvv. Baxter, Chara, Westonia and Yitpi) and containing ca. 1000 F(2) -derived, F(6:7) RILs was assessed at two contrasting soil temperatures (12 and 20 °C) for shoot...
