    Mapping of a thermo-sensitive earliness per se gene on Triticum monococcum chromosome 1A m
    with L. Bullrich, M. L. Appendino, G. Tranquilli, and J. Dubcovsky
    An earliness per se gene, designated Eps-Am1, was mapped in diploid wheat in F2 and single-seed descent mapping populations from the cross between cultivated and wild Triticum monococcum accessions. A QTL with a peak on RFLP loci Xcdo393 and Xwg241, the most distal markers on the long arm of chromosome 1Am, explained 47% of the variation in heading date. Progeny tests for the two F2:3 families with critical recombination events between Xcdo393 and Xwg241 showed that the gene was distal to Xcdo39…Read more
