Improving biomass is an important goal for future genetic gains in yield potential in wheat, but it will also be crucial to identify physiological traits to maximize harvest index (HI, proportion of aboveground biomass in grain). Increased grain part... Read More about Optimizing dry-matter partitioning for increased spike growth, grain number and harvest index in spring wheat.
