Abstract excerpt
Sustaining wheat yield gains requires optimizing the spatiotemporal coordination of source (leaves), transport (stems), and sink (spikes) organs. However, the physiological mechanisms and underlying genetic networks orchestrating the dynamic development of these critical structures remain largely uncharacterized. Here, we leveraged high-resolution time-series phenotyping across 590 wheat accessions evaluated...
