“…In oat, comparable Dw-genes have been incorporated into cultivars with nearly similar results as with wheat (de Rocquigny et al 2004). There are 20 dwarfing genes in wheat, out of which Rht1 and Rht2 are most widely used around the world, Rht8 and Rht9 have been occasionally used in European wheat varieties, Rht15, Rht16, Rht18, Rht19 and Rht20 have potential but are not currently used in breeding, Rht12 is dominant and Rht4, Rht6, Rht7, Rht11, Rht17 are recessive.…”
