Novel sources of variation in grain Zinc (Zn) concentration in bread wheat germplasm derived from Watkins landraces.

Novel sources of variation in grain Zinc (Zn) concentration in bread wheat germplasm derived from Watkins landraces.

A diverse panel of 245 wheat genotypes, derived from crosses between landraces from the Watkins collection representing global diversity in the early 20th century and the modern wheat cultivar Paragon, was grown at two field sites in the UK in 2015-16 and the concentrations of zinc and iron determin...
