Genetic dissection of major QTL for grain number per spike on chromosomes 5A and 6A in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

Grain number per spike (GNS) is a crucial component of grain yield and plays a significant role in improving wheat yield. To identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with GNS, a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population derived from the cross of Zhongkemai 13F10 and Chuanmai 42 was employed...
