Canopy architectural and physiological characterisation of near-isogenic wheat lines differing in the tiller inhibition gene tin

Tillering is a core constituent of plant architecture, and influences light interception to affect plant performance. Near-isogenic lines (NILs) varying for a tiller inhibition (tin) gene were investigated for tillering dynamics, organ size distribution, leaf area, light interception, red : far-red...
