Effective chemical control of pollination would
provide an alternative to the cytoplasmic male-sterile
system in hybrid wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production.
The objective of this study was to determine
concentration, formulation, growth stage of application
and genotypic effects on levels of induced pollen
suppression and subsequent natural out-crossing from
foliar...
A diallel cross consisting of ten parents was grown on the
Hyslop Agronomy Farm near Corvallis, Oregon, in order to obtain
estimates of the gene action contributing to yield and its components
in wheat. Gene action estimates were obtained by two methods of
diallel analysis and from narrow sense heritability...
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,...
