Size scaling describes the relative growth rates of different body parts of an organism following a positive correlation.Domestication and crop breeding often target the scaling traits in the opposite directions.The g...
Over the past decades,crop breeding has undergone genetic improvement through semi-dwarfness,heterosis,and ideal plant architecture,which increases yield tremendously to feed the growing population worldwide.However,c...
