Abstract excerpt
Effective tiller number (ETN) has a pivotal role in determination of rice (Oryza sativa L.) grain yield. ETN is a complex quantitative trait regulated by both genetic and environmental factors. Multiple tillering-related genes have been cloned previously, few of them have been utilized in practical breeding programs. In this study, a genome-wide association study (GWAS) for ETN was conducted on 270 rice...
