Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of biogenetic engineering, in particular to a wheat plant height-related TaGS2 Gene molecular markers, acquisition methods and their applications. Background technique
[0002] Wheat is the most important food crop in the world and one of the three major food crops in my country. Plant height is an important factor affecting the high yield of wheat. Plants that are too tall are prone to lodging under high fertilizer and water conditions, resulting in a decrease in yield; plants that are too short can easily cause crowded leaves, poor ventilation and light transmission in the middle and lower parts, resulting in reduced photosynthetic efficiency and yield. From the 1960s to the 1980s, the promotion of dwarf and semi-dwarf wheat varieties played a key role in increasing wheat production worldwide. In addition to being controlled by the main dwarf gene, the plant height traits of wheat are also characterized ...
