Abstract:: Kernel hardness (KHA) is a major factor determining break flour yield (BFY) and end-use quality of common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Within the soft wheat class, genotypes with consistently softer grains than common soft wheat are considered to be 'extra-soft'. In addition, 'extra-soft' wheats have greater BFY than common soft...

Abstract:: Stripe rust (Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici) has been receiving increased attention in the USA since the appearance of more virulent races detected in the past decade. These races caused yield losses even in areas where the disease previously was rarely detected. Host plant resistance is the most cost effective...

Creator:: Gaynor, Robert C.
Abstract:: Increasing grain yield in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a challenging task, because yield is a complex trait controlled by many genes and highly influenced by environmental factors. The genetic control of yield components and other traits associated with yield may be less complex and thus more manageable for breeding....

Abstract:: Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is a highly valuable crop that makes up a large portion of the world’s food. However, breeding for improved varieties with desirable characteristics can be a challenge. This research examined two different issues wheat breeders deal with throughout the selection process all the way to production of...
