Abstract excerpt
The wheat AP2-like transcription factor gene Q has played a major role in domestication by conferring the free-threshing character and pleiotropically affecting numerous other traits. However, little information is known regarding the molecular mechanisms associated with the regulation of these traits by Q, especially for the structural determination of threshability. Here, transcriptome analysis of immature...
