Awns reduce grain number to increase grain size and harvestable yield in irrigated and rainfed spring wheat.

Journal of experimental botany - 1 Apr 2016

Rebetzke G J, Bonnett D G, Reynolds M P

Abstract excerpt

Genotypic variation in ear morphology is linked to differences in photosynthetic potential to influence grain yield in winter cereals. Awns contribute to photosynthesis, particularly under water-limited conditions when canopy assimilation is restricted. We assessed performance of up to 45 backcross-derived, awned-awnletted NILs representing four diverse genetic backgrounds in 25 irrigated or rainfed, and...
