Height reduction and agronomic performance for selected gibberellin-responsive dwarfing genes in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) (2012, background): “Despite this, Rht8 has been identified in commercial wheat varieties (e.g. China; Zhang et al., 2006), highlighting the potential of the GAR-dwarfing genes for use in breeding of commercial varieties.”
Distribution of the photoperiod insensitive Ppd-D1a allele in Chinese wheat cultivars (2009, background): “The Rht8 gene was found to take a dominant position with frequencies of 46.8% in 220 wheat genotypes from autumn-sown wheat regions, has less effect on reduced height than Rht-B1b and Rht-D1b ( Zhang et al. 2006 ).”
