Jointed goatgrass (Aegilops cylindrica Host) genetic diversity and hybridization with wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

Creator:: Gandhi, Harish Tulshiramji
Abstract:: Jointed goatgrass (Aegilops cylindrica Host; 2n=4x=28; CCDD) is an agriculturally important species both as a weed and as a genetic resource for wheat (Triticum aestivum L.; 2n=6x=42; AABBDD) improvement. In order to better understand the evolution of this species, the diversity of Ae. cylindrica was evaluated along with its progenitors,...

Genetics of low erucic acid and cytological analyses of wide hybrids in meadowfoam

Creator:: Gandhi, Sonali Dilip
Abstract:: Cultivated meadowfoam (Limnanthes alba Benth.) is an annual oil seed crop native to southern Oregon. California and British Columbia. The genus Limnanthes is composed of nine species and divided into two sections, Inflexae and Reflexae. The seed oil of meadowfoam is a rich source of erucic acid and several novel...

Hybridization between imidazolinone-resistant wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and jointed goatgrass (Aegilops cylindrical Host.) and selection pressure impacts on proportion of resistance alleles

Creator:: Martins, Bianca Asssis Barbosa
Abstract:: Imazamox-resistant wheat (Clearfield®) cultivars carry the Imi1 gene, which confers resistance to the imidazolinone (IMI) herbicide imazamox. Imazamox provides selective control of jointed goatgrass and other weeds in IMI-resistant wheat. Imi1 gene flow between IMI-resistant wheat and jointed goatgrass may occur via hybridization and backcross events. In 2009 and 2010,...

Mapping quantitative trait loci underlying genome-wide recombination rate and mating system differences in meadowfoam

Creator:: Kishore, Venkata Krishna
Abstract:: Meadowfoam (Limnanthes alba Bentham; Order: Brassicales; Family: Limnanthaceae) is a self-compatible, predominantly allogamous, insect pollinated species. Meadowfoam oil is a source of novel unsaturated very-long-chain (VLC) seed oils (C₂₀ and C₂₂) with low concentrations of saturated fatty acids (typically less than 2%) and outstanding oxidative stability. Here we report the...

Physiological, Chemical and Genetic Studies in Meadowfoam (Limnanthes alba)

Creator:: Zhang, Jun
Abstract:: Meadowfoam (Limnanthes alba) is an oilseed crop with unique chemical characteristics. The ability to identify physiological maturity (PM) and harvest maturity HM of the crop would permit timely harvest of high quality seeds. However, changes of oil contents, fatty acid profile and glucosinolate contents, as well as seed quality during...

Molecular mechanisms underlying the high oleic acid phenotype in sunflower

Creator:: Schuppert, Gunnar Felix
Abstract:: Wildtype sunflower typically produces 12-24% oleic acid (18:1) and 70-82% linoleic acid (18:2). High-oleic sunflower, by contrast, produces up to 80-94% oleic acid. The monounsaturated oleic acid has a greater oxidative stability than the polyunsaturated linoleic acid, predominant in wildtype sunflower, and has greater nutritional benefits than polyunsaturated and saturated...

Exploiting Hordeum vulgare subsp. spontaneum genetic resources : diversity analysis and germplasm development

Creator:: Matus, Iván Ariel
Abstract:: Wild barley (Hordeum vulgare subsp. spontaneum) could be a source of useful genes for improving cultivated barley. The useful genes present in Hordeum vulgare subsp. spontaneum may be new alleles at described loci, or these may be entirely new genes in the sense that there is limited allelic variation at...

Nuclear and chloroplast diversity of Pacific Northwest wheat (Triticum aestivum) breeding germplasm

Creator:: Edwards, Melanie Love
Abstract:: Wheat breeders must effectively maintain and manage existing genetic diversity in order to continue the development of superior genotypes. It is therefore fundamental that the genetic relationships and diversity within the germplasm pools be thoroughly characterized and understood. Recently, DNA-based markers have provided powerful tools for genetic diversity analysis. This...

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...
