Elymus nutans genes for seed shattering and candidate gene-derived EST-SSR markers for germplasm evaluation

Abstract Background Elymus nutans and E. sibiricus are two important forage grasses of the genus Elymus. But they are difficult to grow for commercial seed production due to serious seed shattering. We conducted a comparative transcriptome analysis of abscission zone to find possible transcription c...
