Association analysis of grain-setting rate at the apical and basal spikelets in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

The rates of grain-setting in apical and basal spikelets in wheat directly affects the kernel number per spike. In this study, 220 wheat lines from 18 Chinese provinces and five foreign countries were used as a natural population. Phenotypic analysis showed differences in grain-setting rates between...
