GrainGenes Trait Study Report: Spikes per area, Shah99

Trait Study
Spikes per area, Shah99
Reference
ReferenceShah MM et al. (1999) Molecular mapping of loci for agronomic traits on chromosome 3A of bread wheat. Crop Science 39:1728-1732.
Protocol
Spikes per square meter, calculated by dividing the grain yield of the plot by the number of kernels per spike and the mean kernel weight.
The RICL-3A population and the parents, CNN and CNN(WI3A), were evaluated in four to eight diverse Nebraska environments during 1994 - 1996.
