Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Plant height is a pivotal trait in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), influencing both lodging resistance and yield potential. Understanding its genetic architecture is essential for developing semi-dwarf, high-yielding cultivars. RESULTS: In this study, 224 Sichuan wheat cultivars were evaluated for plant height across three environments and genotyped using a 120 K SNP array. A genome-wide association...
