Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Sequencing 87 starch-metabolism genes in 300 wheat accessions detected 8,141 polymorphic sites.
- Observation Starch contents fluctuated across years in the wheat accessions.
- Observation Thousand kernel weight showed little variation across years.
- Association Polymorphisms in six genes were significantly associated with thousand kernel weight.
- Association None of these genes was associated with starch or amylose content.
- Observation Variants of 15 genes on chromosomes 1A and 7A formed haplotype blocks in 26 accessions.
- Association Accessions with higher TKW had more favorable haplotypes.
- Mechanism The authors conclude that the haplotypes contribute additive effects to TKW.
