Genetic bases of source-, sink-, and yield-related traits revealed by genome-wide association study in Xian rice

The source-sink relationship determines the ultimate grain yield. We investigated the genetic basis of the relationship between source and sink and yield potential in rice. In two environments, we identified quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with sink capacity (total spikelet number per panic...
