Abstract:CWI markers, also known as Cell Wall Invertase markers, play a pivotal role in wheat breeding and crop improvement. These markers help identify wheat varieties with desirable traits related to yield potential, stress tolerance, drought tolerance, and overall crop performance. The CWI gene, found in bread wheat, has been identified on chromosomes 4A, 5B, and 5D, all of which contain the conserved WECPDF domain. The main role of the Cell wall invertase (CWI) gene is to hydrolyze sucrose into glucose and fructose… Show more
