Genome-wide dissection of tillering responsiveness to neighbour proximity in sorghum

Tillering plasticity is a key adaptive trait in sorghum influencing resource use efficiency via a plants ability to adjust branching to neighbour density. Neighbour detection through red:far-red (R:FR) light sensing regulates this plasticity. While molecular pathways regulating tiller outgrowth are partly known, the genetic architecture underlying density-responsive tillering has not been…
