New wheat study reveals key traits for boosting crop yields!
The researchers studied different traits of wheat plants to see how they affect grain yield. They found that traits like number of spikes, grains per spike, and weight of grains per spike have a strong positive relationship with grain yield. They also discovered that traits like plant height, above ground biomass, and harvest index directly impact grain yield. This information can help breeders choose the best traits to improve wheat yield in the future.
