evaluation of resistance of bread wheat cultivars to russian wheat aphid at seedling and stem elongation growth stages

Evaluation of wheat (triticum SPP.) resistance to the russian wheat aphid (diuraphis noxia mordvilko)

Characterization of resistance components to russian wheat aphid diuraphis noxia (mordvilko) in several wheat (triticum SPP.)genotypes

Salt Sensitivity of Two Wheat Cultivars at Different Growth Stages

To determine salt sensitivity for wheat at various growth stages, a factorial experiment arranged as randomized complete block design was conducted in the ambient environment at the National Salinity Research Center, Yazd, Iran. Treatment were two cultivars of wheat (Kavir & Roshan) and salinity imposed at emergence, tillering, stem elongation, spike emergence and one week after anthesis. A con...

Glycoproteins from Russian wheat aphid infested wheat induce defence responses.

Elicitors are molecules which can induce the activation of plant defence responses. Elicitor activity of intercellular wash fluid from Russian wheat aphid, Diuraphis noxia (Mordvilko) infested resistant (cv Tugela DN), and susceptible (cv Tugela), wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), was investigated. Known Russian wheat aphid resistance related responses such as peroxidase and beta-1,3-glucanase acti...

Plant and Floret Growth at Distinct Developmental Stages During the Stem Elongation Phase in Wheat

Floret development is critical for grain setting in wheat (Triticum aestivum), but more than 50% of grain yield potential (based on the maximum number of floret primordia) is lost during the stem elongation phase (SEP, from the terminal spikelet stage to anthesis). Dynamic plant (e.g., leaf area, plant height) and floret (e.g., anther and ovary size) growth and its connection with grain yield t...

Genetic Transformation of Russian Wheat Cultivars

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) ranks first among cereal crops cultivated in Russia and Russia is one of the major wheat producers in the world. Though there is a great demand for Russian wheat varieties with resistance to diseases and other environmental stress, there is a limitation at transferring resistance to crop plants by the complexity of stress tolerance traits, as most of these are quant...
