Genetic loci associated with high grain zinc concentration and pleiotropic effect on kernel weight in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

2014-12-01

Abstract excerpt

Zinc deficiency in humans is recognized as a widespread public health problem worldwide, but can be combated via genetic biofortification through breeding high zinc containing wheat varieties. CIMMYT (International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center, Int.) is engaged in enhancing, among others, the grain zinc concentration (GZnC) of high-yielding wheat germplasm under the HarvestPlus initiative of the Consultative...
