A PCR Marker for Growth Habit in Common Wheat Based on Allelic Variation at the VRN-A1 Gene
2004-09-01
Abstract excerpt
Growth habit varies among accessions of hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). The winter habit genotype (homozygous recessive for vrn-A1, vrn-B1, vrn-D1) requires a cold treatment to induce flowering and is generally planted in the fall. Spring habit genotypes flower in the absence of a vernalization treatment. Spring habit is conferred by a dominant allele at any of the three VRN-1 loci, but varieties carrying...
