Estimates of genetic variability resulting from single, top, and double cross populations in durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. var. durum)

Creator:

Abdennadher, Mourad

Abstract:

The success of a plant breeding program depends upon the availability of useable genetic diversity. Such diversity may be enhanced depending on the type of hybridization strategy employed. Segregating progenies resulting from F2 populations, a double cross, and a top cross were compared for the amount of useable genetic diversity...

Molecular fingerprinting, rDNA internal transcribed spacer sequence, and karyotype analysis of Ustilago hordei and related smut fungi

Creator:

Abdennadher, Mourad

Abstract:

Inbreeding of the avirulent physiologic race 8 strains of Ustilago hordei was purported to have increased its pathogenicity in a stepwise manner that led to a highly pathogenic race, designated race 14. The analysis of electrophoretic karyotypes and restriction fragment length polymorphism profiles detected with a telomere-specific probe (TelomereRFLP) in...
