Comment
Hexaploid stocks: common, macha, spelt and vavilovi wheats.
Candidate gene APETALA2-like, sequence AY170867.
q is an allele in T.dicoccoides
(Curator note. VCB, Aug 2019, J Dubcovsky, pers.comm.) q was actually just the ancestral allele from T.dicoccoides, however, this record remains for historical value as the gene 'q' can be found in the literature.
(Curator note. VCB, Aug 2019) Please see 'Q (Triticum)' for extensive curation and updated reference list.
