Laboratory methods for wheat variety identification

Creator:

Ait Amer Meziane, Aomar

Abstract:

There is an increasing need for development of laboratory identification procedures for purposes of plant variety protection, seed certification, quality control and consumer protection. In the past there were fewer commercial varieties and field testing methods based on morphological differences were used satisfactorily. These tests require several months to complete...

Seed maturation in subterranean clover (Trifolium subterraneum L.)

Creator:

Mouwen, Charles M.

Abstract:

A seed maturation study was conducted to determine the earliest date seed of subterranean clover (Trifolium subterraneum L.) may be safely harvested without reduction in yield or seed quality. In 1981 and 1982, seed and bur weight, seed and bur moisture content, germination and seedling vigor were studied to determine...

Evaluating Field Production Issues by Investigating Grain Dormancy and Plant Segregation Patterns in Soft White Winter Wheat

Creator:

McCarthy, Christy A.

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...
