  • Localization and genetic mapping of some factors influencing rachis brittleness and free-threshing habit in wheat

    Creator:
    Nalam, Vamsi J.
    Abstract:
    Domesticated forms of wheat exhibit traits that have increased their adaptation to cultivation by humans. Some of the most critical adaptive differences involve changes to morphological features that make the crop easier to harvest like ear rachis stiffness (brittle to non-brittle rachis) and the ease with which the seed is...

  • Stripe rust resistance pyramids in barley

    Creator:
    Castro Tabo, Ariel Julio
    Abstract:
    Genetic resistance is the most appropriate way to control diseases in crop plants. Resistance can be described as qualitative (involving a gene-for-gene system) or quantitative (with continuous distribution of disease levels). The relationships between different types of resistance remain obscure, as does the genetics of quantitative traits. The use of...
