Grain size and other traits variation in a winter wheat population of doubled haploid lines

What is it about?

This paper presents the results obtained by studying for three years, under field condition, 85 doubled haploid (DH) lines obtained from the F1’s of ‘G.603-86’ (large grains) × ‘F.132’ (normal grains) crosses using biotechnological Zea.

Why is it important?

The environmental conditions of the three years had an important contribution on the genotype × year interaction, which showed also a higher influence on 1000 kernel weight (TKW). The variability of plant height and ear emergence data was also affected to a similar extent by this interaction.
