Functional Descriptions:

• Our study validated the function of TaVRT-A2pet in regulating multiple spike- and grain-related traits in wheat.
• VRT-A2 is the P1 gene that controls the long glume trait of Polish wheat.
• A natural variation of an SVP MADS-box transcription factor in Triticum petropavlovskyi leads to its ectopic expression and contributes to elongated glume.
• These results verified the function of TaVRT-A2 in regulating Eg.
• Spike morphology of transgenic plants overexpressing TaVRT-A2.
