Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Plant height (PH) and spike compactness (SC) are important agronomic traits that affect yield improvement in wheat crops. The identification of the loci or genes responsible for these traits is thus of great importance for marker-assisted selection in wheat breeding. RESULTS: In this study, we used a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population with 139 lines derived from a cross between the mutant Rht8-2...
