Characterization of the wheat VQ protein family and expression of candidate genes associated with seed dormancy and germination

Abstract Background Seed dormancy and germination determine wheat resistance to pre-harvest sprouting and thereby affect grain yield and quality. Arabidopsis VQ genes have been shown to influence seed germination; however, the functions of wheat VQ genes have not been characterized. Results We ident...
