Abstract:Variation in productivity traits and their correlations were studied in 16 hybrid lines of <em>Aegilops kotschyi</em> Boiss. and <em>A. variabilis</em> Eig. with <em>Triticum aestivum</em> L. and their parental components. In comparison to the wheat cultivars, most of the hybrid lines exhibited higher tillering, whereas the length of the main tiller and spike rachis were similar to the values for the wheat cultivars. The values of other traits, such as basal stem diameter, m… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
