- Abstract:
- ... Comparisons of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) germplasms provided evidence that the T1BL.1RS chromosome substitution enhances agronomic performance and, particularly, grain yield. There are no known reports of the effect of this translocation in durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L.), however. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of the T1BL.1RS chromosome on grain yield, yield ...

- Abstract:
- ... Aegilops tauschii Coss., a diploid progenitor of common wheat, Triticum aestivum L., is a valuable source of pest resistance alleles. However, interspecific populations generated for pest-resistant germplasm development may contain beneficial alleles for other important traits. The objective of this research was to evaluate eight agronomic and grain quality traits in three soft red winter wheat × ...

- Abstract:
- ... Lint yield and fiber quality in upland cotton, Gossypium hirsutum L., are interrelated through a series of individual components such as fiber length and the number of fibers produced on each seed. Numerous studies have reported the relationships among various components of yield and yield per unit land area, but none have reported on the relationships among the most basic within-boll yield compon ...

- Abstract:
- ... To accurately predict the time of flowering, it is essential to determine the effects of environmental factors on crop development at different stages. The objective of this study was to examine the variation in flowering responses to day temperature (TD) and night temperature (TN) during the preflowering period (PFP) in rice (Oryza sativa L.). Three controlled-environment experiments were conduct ...

A collection of more than 3000 accessions of triticale (× Triticosecale Wittmack), called the North American Triticale Genetic Resources Collection (NATGRC), was assembled from 10 active and inactive breeding programs in the USA, Canada, and Mexico for the purposes of conservation, characterization, evaluation, and documentation. Since triticale has no wild ancestors and hybrid parentage is often ...

- Abstract:
- ... Wheat leaf rust resistance gene Lr43 was recently transferred from Aegilops tauschii Coss. to common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) to produce hard red winter wheat germplasm line KS92WGRC16. Monosomic and telocentric analyses were used to determine the chromosomal and chromosome arm location of Lr43. KS92WGRC16 was crossed with each of the seven D-genome monosomic lines. The F₂ families were inocul ...

- Abstract:
- ... Coatings may slow water uptake by seeds. To analyze this effect, imbibition of coated and non-coated maize (Zea mays L.) seeds was determined in gaseous and liquid phases. One coating material was applied at five different rates. Similar experiments were done with porous silica beads in saturated air. The volume and surface of the seeds and silica beads were either measured or calculated, and the ...

- Abstract:
- ... Some corn (Zea mays L.) genotypes produce husk leaves (laminae extending from the husk) that on a per unit area basis, contribute more photosynthate to grain production than culm leaves. Furthermore, a high correlation between husk leaf area and dry weight has been observed, but little is known about the changes in cell components during development of husk leaves. A field experiment was conducted ...

- Abstract:

To screen genetic loci for seed dormancy in rice (Oryza sativa L.), two kinds of populations were tested: (i) an F₂ population of a hybrid Milyang 23 / Todorokiwase, and (ii) F₁ populations from a three-way cross, in which an indica ...

Molecular markers can be used to locate quantitative trait loci (QTL) and measure marker effects in early generations. For marker assisted selection to be useful in improving the efficiency of early generation testing, marker effects estimat ...

Previous research revealed that cells of root tips treated with Ala-Ala were void of cellular components, specifically discernible nuclei and mitotic structures, as well as an overall loss of cytoplasmic integrity. Treated root tips had extensive cell wall abnormalities, including uneven ...

However, germplasm containing the S-5ⁿ wide compatibility allele, derived from tropical japonica (javanica), can be used as an intermediate in the transfer of traits. A PCR-based DNA marker, STS213, was used to identify the fraction of an F₃ population, segregating for S-5ⁿ ...
