Abstract:Optimization of the flowering time in wheat is an important breeding target for its adaptability in target environments. Flowering time is controlled by vernalization, photoperiod, and the relatively poorly characterized earliness per se (Eps) genes. When vernalization and photoperiod criteria are met, Eps genes account for the variance in flowering time. The objective of the study was to decipher the allelic variations for Eps genes in the wheat cultivars of Pakistan and draw their association with agronomic … Show more
