Abstract excerpt
Wheat ( L.) spike characteristics determine the number of grains produced on each spike and constitute key components of grain yield. Understanding of the genetic basis of spike characteristics in wheat, however, is limited. In this study, genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) and the iSelect 9K assay were used on a doubled-haploid (DH) soft red winter wheat population that showed a wide range of phenotypic variation...
