Mapping QTL for spike fertility and related traits in two doubled haploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) populations

Abstract Background In breeding programs, the selection of cultivars with the highest yield potential consisted in the selection of the yield per se, which resulted in cultivars with higher grains per spike (GN) and occasionally increased grain weight (GW) (main numerical components of the yield). I...
