Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: A novel QTL (QSt.nftec-2BL) was mapped to a 0.7 cM interval on chromosome 2B. Plants carrying QSt.nftec-2BL produced higher grain yields by up to 21.4% than otherwise in salinized fields. Wheat yield has been limited by soil salinity in many wheat-growing areas globally. The wheat landrace Hongmangmai (HMM) possesses salt tolerance as it produced higher grain yields than other tested wheat varieties...
