Association Mapping of Resistance to Yellow Rust in Winter Wheat Cultivars and Elite Genotypes
Yellow (stripe) rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis
f.sp. tritici (Pst), is a destructive disease of
wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) all over the world,
particularly in the Central and West Asia and
North Africa (CWANA) ...
Isolation of EST-derived microsatellite markers for genotyping the A and B genomes of wheat
Genetic variation present in 64 durum wheat accessions was investigated by using three sources of microsatellite (SSR) markers: EST-derived SSRs (EST-SSRs) and two sources of SSRs isolated from total genomic DNA. Out of ...
Wheat Barley and Triticale Newsletter - RACHIS - No. 18(1)
The RACHIS information service has been initiated by ICARDA to meet the information needs of barley, wheat and triticale research workers in the Near East and North Africa region. RACHIS seeks to report research results ...
Resistance gene analogs associated with Fusarium head blight resistance in wheat
Fusarium head blight (FHB) is one of the most destructive diseases in wheat. Identification of resistance gene analogs (RGAs) may provide candidate genes for cloning of FHB resistance genes and molecular markers for ...
Impacts of International Wheat Improvement Research
Wheat is a major source of calories and protein for consumers in developing countries. The “Green Revolution” improved the national food security and welfare of the poor in developing countries in the second half of the ...
Identification and Characterization of Salt Tolerance of Wheat Germplasm Using a Multivariable Screening Approach
Salinity is one of the major limitations to wheat production worldwide. This study was designed to evaluate the level of genetic variation among 150 internationally derived wheat genotypes for salinity tolerance at ...
Agronomic Performance of Elite Stem Rust Resistant Spring Wheat Genotypes and Association among Trial Sites in the Central and West Asia and North Africa Region
The new stem rust race Ug99 is an alarming threat to the wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production of the world for the very fact that it overcomes many of the known Sr genes including the most commonly used genes such as ...
Genetic and transcriptional variations in NRAMP‑2 and OPAQUE1 genes are associated with salt stress response in wheat.
The dissection of the genetic and molecular components of salt stress response offers strong opportunities toward understanding and improving salt tolerance in crops. In this study, GWAS was employed to identify a total ...
Multi-dimensional evaluation of response to salt stress in wheat
Soil salinity is a major threat to crop production worldwide. The global climate change is further accelerating the process of soil salinization, particularly in dry areas of the world. Increasing genetic variability of ...
Association Analysis of Genotypic and Phenotypic Traits Using SSR Marker in Durum Wheat
In durum wheat, marker-trait associations were studied for six agronomic
traits using a set of 25 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers , with a set of 40 wheat
genotypes including drought, semi-tolerant and non-drought ...
