Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: Two QTLs with major effects on rolled leaf trait were consistently detected on chromosomes 1A (QRl.hwwg-1AS) and 5A (QRl.hwwg-5AL) in the field experiments. Rolled leaf (RL) is a morphological strategy to protect plants from dehydration under stressed field conditions. Identification of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) underlining RL is essential to breed drought-tolerant wheat cultivars. A mapping...
