QTL analysis in the Mianmai 902×Taichang 29 RIL population reveals the genetic basis for the high-yield of wheat cultivars Mianmai 902 in terms of spike and plant architecture.

Abstract excerpt

Spike-related traits and plant height (PH) are greatly associated with wheat yield. Identification of stable quantitative trait loci (QTL) for these traits is crucial for understanding the genetic basis for yield and their further application in breeding. In this study, QTL analysis for spikelet number per spike (SNS), spike length (SL), spike compactness (SC) and PH was performed using a recombinant inbred line...
