Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: This study demonstrated that the aberrant transcription of DvGW2 contributed to the increased grain width and thousand-grain weight in wheat-Dasypyrum villosum T6VS·6DL translocation lines. Due to the high immunity to powdery mildew, Dasypyrum villosum 6VS has been one of the most successful applications of the wild relatives in modern wheat breeding. Along with the desired traits, side-effects could...
