Pyramiding Disease Resistance Genes In Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
… (STB) and barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) in wheat. Two winter and two spring wheat cultivars were crossed and seven generations of spring wheat were developed in three years. Fifty percent of the F3 and 20% of the F5 population showed low severity to both leaf rust and Septoria tritici …

Morpho-Physiological responses of spring wheat(Triticum Aestivum L.) to heat stress
Constant or transitory high temperatures affect wheat growth and development leading to diverse morphological, physiological and biochemical changes that eventually decrease grain yield. It is against this background that this study was conducted to identify morpho-physiological traits associated …

Genetically dissect disease interactions between Parastagonospora nodorum and wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
… nodorum is a necrotrophic fungal pathogen of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and the causative agent of stagonospora nodorum blotch (SNB). P. nodorum mediates host cell death using proteinaceous effectors. Three P. nodorum effectors have been cloned: SnToxA, SnTox1 and SnTox3. SnTox3 susceptible …

Evaluation of wheat(triticum aestivum l.)gentypes for nitrogen and water use efficiency
Wheat is increasing becoming an important staple food crop in Zambia particularly in the urban and per-urban communities where shift in food tastes and preferences to wheat products has occurred. Production and yield are however severely limited by cost of irrigation water and nitrogen fertilisers. …

Genotype-by-Floral Characteristics Interaction for Hybrid Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Production in Texas
… to increase yield potential and production of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) to meet the demand of 9.7 billion people in 2050. Self-pollinated crops are challenging due to high seed production cost and the need to force them to behave as a cross-pollinated crop. Therefore, a compromise between …

Impact of Low-Amylose, Waxy Wheat (Triticum Aestivum L.) Flour Blends on Functional Tortilla Characteristics
<p>The impact of wheat flour starch components affecting end-use quality in food products is not well understood. However, the breeding of waxy wheat lines having low levels of amylose starch has provided new possibilities to characterize the impact of starch on end-use food quality and …

Use of an Optical Sorter to Select for Winter Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Kernel Color
<p>Pure, white-kernel colored (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars are needed for new end-use markets, and selection tools are necessary to help wheat breeders differentiate and efficiently separate white and red colored kernels within segregating populations to develop new white-kernel colored wheat …

Genotype and Nitrogen fertilizer influence on Grain yield and protein content of wheat(Triticum aestivum L.)
The grain yield of wheat in Lesotho is low because of poor soil fertility, and the wheat is regarded by the millers to be of poor quality and therefore of less value. A field study was therefore conducted at three sites in Lesotho( Maseru, Leribe and Mafeteng) to evaluate the influence of genotype …

The identification and characterisation of key genes involved in somatic embryogenesis in wheat (Triticum, aestivum L.)
… genes that are specifically related to SE in wheat. Following bioinformatic and expression analysis, 57 of these genes were short listed and further characterised by in situ hybridisation (ISH) to provide further information of their temporal and spatial patterns of expression. A small subset …

Genetic Analysis and Marker -Assisted Selection of Scab Resistance QTL in Bread Wheat (Triticum Aestivum L.)
Wheat head scab is a very destructive fungal disease. Based on the mapping data of 700 AFLP and SSR markers in a population of 133 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from Ning7840/Clark, three chromosomal regions associated with scab resistance were detected in a common cultivar, Ning7840. …

Evaluation of physiological traits and identification of QTLs for drought tolerance in hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L.).
… the first part (Chapter 3), three cultivars of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) adapted to South Australian conditions were tested for drought tolerance under cyclic drought in growth rooms and glasshouse. Extensive physiological traits, including stomatal conductance, chlorophyll content and …

Association Mapping for Elemental Concentration Resulting from Vegetative Stage Soil Waterlogging Stress in Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
<p>Soil waterlogging (WL) affects wheat production worldwide, including the southern of the U.S. Little is known about the genetics of tolerance mechanisms to WL, particularly of potentially toxic elements such as aluminum, iron and sodium. The objectives of this study were to use association …

Genomic selection and quantitative trait loci mapping for Fusarium head blight resistance in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
… head blight (FHB) is a destructive disease of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) occurring in most growing areas. The disease is primarily caused by Fusarium graminearum Schwabe [telemorph: Gibberella zeae Schw. (Petch)], in North America, and the majority of current wheat cultivars are susceptible …
