Abstract This study estimated the genotype × environment interactions for ten yield associated traits in advanced generation hybrids of several cultivars common wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) with Aegilops kotschyi Boiss. and A. variabilis Eig. using additive main effects multiplicative interaction (AMMI) models. Tests were ran over five years at one location replicated field trials. The AMMI mo...

genetic drift of germplasm in cultivated wheat is good motivation for studying genetic diversity in its wild relatives. in this study, r-rap, a new retrotransposon-based marker, was applied to assess the structure and genetic diversity of 30 accessions of aegilops sp. originating from different geographical regions of iran. the 15 r-rap primer combinations revealed a total of 338 bands ranging ...

Powdery mildew is one of the most destructive wheat diseases, and it causes a constant need for improvement resistance. Transfer resistance genes from wild relatives into genetic pool could be an alternative to use fungicides. This review contains classification powdery on different ontogenetic stages (seedling adult resistance), expression trait (quantitative qualitative), conferring (wide-spe...

Two lines of Aegilops squarrosa (G 3489 and G 1279) and Triticum cultivars Anza, Cocorit, Produra, Chinese Spring, Nugaines, and a synthetic hexaploid were screened for resistance to Meloidogyne chitwoodi. Reproduction of M. chitwoodi, expressed as eggs per gram root, was low (P < 0.01) on G 3489 and the synthetic hexaploid. Reproduction on all other cultivars tested was high although differenc...
