Effects of the <i>Blp1</i> locus, which controls melanin accumulation in the barley ear, on the size and weight of seeds
Background. In cereals, photosynthetically active parts of the ear significantly contribute to seed size and weight at the grain-filling stage. In barley, ear tissues may accumulate melanin pigments synthesized in chloroplast-derived melanoplasts. Effects of such pigments on yield parameters of seed...
