Identification and high-resolution mapping of a novel tiller inhibition gene (tin6) by combining forward genetics screen and MutMap approach in bread wheat
Abstract:Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is one of the most important food crops worldwide, providing up to 20% of the caloric intake per day. Developing high-yielding wheat cultivars with tolerance against abiotic and biotic stresses is important to keep up with the increasing human population. Tiller number is one of the major yield-related traits, directly affecting the number of grains produced per plant, however, only a small number of QTL and underlining genes have been identified for this important factor.
