Abstract excerpt
Abscisic acid (ABA) regulates seed dormancy and therefore preharvest sprouting (PHS) in wheat. This study investigated the contribution of transcriptional regulation of ABA metabolism and signaling genes to genetic variation in dormancy of wheat seeds. Our results showed that genetic variation in seed dormancy is highly correlated with ABA content (r > 0.86), which, in turn, was closely associated with the...
