Lentils (Lens culinaris L.), a Rich Source of Folates
The potential for genetic biofortification of U.S.-grown lentils (Lens culinaris L.) with bioavailable folate has not
been widely studied. The objectives of this study were (1) to determine the folate concentration of 10 ...
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 ...
Wheat Zapper: a flexible online tool for colinearity studies in grass genomes
In the course of evolution, the genomes of grasses have maintained an observable degree of gene order conservation. The information available for already sequenced genomes can be used to predict the gene order of nonsequenced ...
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 ...
International germplasm development for multiple disease resistance
The International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA), with the
headquarters in Aleppo, Syria, is one of 15 centers strategically located all over the world and
supported by the Consultative Group ...
AGRONOMIC AND QUALITY QTL MAPPING IN SPRING WHEAT
Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) flour represents one of the primary sources of calories and proteins for the human diet.
The increase in the wheat yield without losing its baking and milling quality is an important breeding ...
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 ...
A radiation hybrid map of chromosome 1D reveals synteny conservation at a wheat speciation locus
The species cytoplasm specific (scs) genes affect nuclear-cytoplasmic interactions in interspecific hybrids. A radiation hybrid (RH) mapping population of 188 individuals was employed to refine the location of the scsae ...
