Characterization of seedling infection types and adult plant infection responses of monogenic Sr gene lines to race TTKS of Puccinia graminis f. sp tritici
Stem rust, caused by Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici, historically was one of the most destructive diseases of wheat and barley. The disease has been under effective control worldwide through the widespread use of host ...
Fast-forward genetics by radiation hybrids to saturate the locus regulating nuclear–cytoplasmic compatibility in Triticum
The nuclear-encoded species cytoplasm specific (scs) genes control nuclear–cytoplasmic compatibility in wheat (genus Triticum). Alloplasmic cells, which have nucleus and cytoplasm derived from different species, produce ...
Biodiversity of Nematode Communities Associated with Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) in Southern Morocco and Their Contribution as Soil Health Bioindicators
Soil nematodes are major soil organisms known to reduce wheat production worldwide. However, they are a crucial part of soil biodiversity. Due to the limited data available regarding nematode biodiversity associated with ...
Will selenium increase lentil (Lens culinaris Medik) yield and seed quality?
Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik), a nutritious traditional pulse crop, has been experiencing a declining area of production in South East Asia, due to lower yields, and marginal soils. The objective of this study was to ...
Meeting the Challenges Facing Wheat Production: The Strategic Research Agenda of the Global Wheat Initiative
Wheat occupies a special role in global food security since, in addition to providing 20% of
our carbohydrates and protein, almost 25% of the global production is traded internationally. The
importance of wheat for food ...
Spectral Reflectance Models for Characterizing Winter Wheat Genotypes
Optimum wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) yield can be achieved by
developing and growing the best genotypes in the most suited
environments. However, exhaustive field measurements are
required to characterize plants with ...
