Wheat individual grain-size variance originates from crop development and from specific genetic determinism.

Wheat grain yield is usually decomposed in the yield components: number of spikes / m2, number of grains / spike, number of grains / m2 and thousand kernel weight (TKW). These are correlated one with another due to yield component compensation. Under optimal conditions, the number of grains per m2 h...
