Recent advances in the genetics underlying wheat grain protein content and grain protein deviation in hexaploid wheat.

Abstract excerpt

Wheat is one of the most important global crops and selection for better performance has been ongoing since ancient times. As a quantitative trait controlled by the interplay of several genomic loci and under the strong influence of the environment, grain protein content (GPC) is of major interest in breeding programs. Here, we review the most recent contributions to the genetics underlying wheat GPC and grain...
