Study of Variability in Root System Architecture of Spanish <i>Triticum turgidum</i> L. Subspecies and Analysis of the Presence of a MITE Element Inserted in the <i>TtDro1B</i> Gene: Evolutionary Implications
We analysed nine traits of the root system of 223 genotypes of <i>Triticum turgidum</i> (2n = 4x = AABB) subspecies <i>dicoccoides</i>, <i>dicoccum</i>, <i>turgidum</i>, <i>durum</i> and <i>polonicum</i>, finding a large intra a...
