Association mapping in Scandinavian winter wheat for yield, plant height and traits important for second-generation bioethanol production

Association mapping in Scandinavian winter wheat for yield, plant height and traits important for second-generation bioethanol production

A collection of 100 wheat varieties representing more than 100 years of wheat-breeding history in Scandinavia was established in order to identify marker-trait associations for plant height, grain yield and biomass potential for bioethanol production. The field-grown material showed variations in pl...
