The physiology and genetics behind fruiting efficiency: a promising spike trait to improve wheat yield potential.

Journal of experimental botany - 18 May 2021

Pretini Nicole, Alonso María P, Vanzetti Leonardo S, Pontaroli Ana C, González Fernanda G

Abstract excerpt

Fruiting efficiency (FE, grains per g of spike dry weight at anthesis) was proposed as a promising spike trait to improve wheat yield potential, based on its functional relationship with grain number determination and the evidence of trait variability in elite germplasm. During the last few years, we have witnessed great advances in the understanding of the physiological and genetic basis of this trait. The...
