Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Tiller angle is a critical agronomic trait determining plant architecture, planting density, and grain yield in cereal crops. However, the genetic of tiller angle in barley remains largely unexplored, particularly regarding the underlying quantitative trait loci and their stability across different genetic backgrounds. RESULTS: In this study, we performed quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping for...
