Growth properties of induced mutants of the common wheat-bunt fungus, Tilletia caries, in axenic culture and in planta

Creator:

Churchill, Alice Cynthia Louise

Abstract:

Genetic studies of Tilletia spp. have been hampered by the lack of genetic markers. The work discussed here is a first report of the isolation of genetically marked strains of J. caries and their use in wheat plant infection studies. Procedures for the isolation of auxotrophic and drug-resistant mutants in...

Electrophoretic karyotypes and molecular genetic analysis of Tilletia caries and T. controversa

Creator:

Russell, Brian W.

Abstract:

Electrophoretic karyotypes were obtained from intact cells of four wild type strains of Tilletia caries and T. controversa, and 5 inter specific hybrid progeny using clamped homogeneous electric field, pulsed field gel electrophoresis (CHEF PFGE). Each karyotype was polymorphic and unique relative to the other strains. However, the relative size...
