Abstract excerpt
Plant height and flag leaf morphology critically affect plant yield because they determine above-ground plant biomass and photosynthate production. However, few genetic basis analyses and gene mining studies on plant height, flag leaf length, and flag leaf width have been performed, and there is little available information about the evolution and utilization of the underlying natural alleles. This study...
