Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGES: A novel major locus (Qgi.245.ahau-4B.3) controlling seed dormancy, and its candidate genes (TaF-box-B1 and TaF-box-B2), were identified by integrating association and linkage mapping with expression and sequence variation analyses. Moderate seed dormancy is essential for reducing pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) and ensuring uniform germination in cereal crops. In this study, seed dormancy was evaluated...
