Comparative biomechanical and molecular mechanisms shaping erect and prostrate winter growth habits in wheat.

Abstract excerpt

The erect and prostrate growth habits are key plant architectural traits in wheat during the overwintering period. Interestingly, both erect and prostrate growth habits exhibit an erect phenotype during the seedling stage. However, during the overwintering period, wheat varieties with a prostrate growth habit transition from erect to prostrate, while those with an erect growth habit maintain their erect phenotype...
