Faba bean is gaining attention in Australia as a rotation grain legume where most of the country’s produce exported. Rust, caused by Uromyces viciae-fabae, major constraint to production eastern and its chemical control results increased cost production. The deployment diverse sources resistance new cultivars underpins economic eco-friendly rust diseases crops. A selection from cultivar Doza (D...

The objective of this study was to evaluate boron tolerance wheat genotypes using mature embryo culture. analysis involved 79 recombinant inbred lines the International Triticeae Mapping Initiative (ITMI) population and three Serbian varieties with known (B) (Pobeda - sensitive S, Balerina-medium tolerant MT, Nevesinjka T). evaluation performed on a modified MS medium which 15 mM boric acid add...

The architecture of a plant affects its ability to compete for light and to respond to environmental stresses, thus affecting overall fitness and productivity. Two components of architecture, branching and height, were studied in 182 F7 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) at the vegetative, flowering and mature developmental stages in the panicoid C4 model grass system, Setaria. The RIL population ...

Preharvest sprouting (PHS) of durum wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. durum (Desf.) Husn.) is an important problem in Japan, where the rainy season overlaps with the harvest season. Since there are few PHS-resistant genetic resources in durum wheat, we introduced an R-gene for red seeds, the MFT gene, and the QPhs-5AL QTL, all of which are associated with PHS resistance, into durum wheat from a PHS...

ABSTRACT A set of 192 maize recombinant inbred lines (RILs), derived from a cross between the inbred lines Mo17 and B73, were evaluated as 3-week-old seedlings in the greenhouse for resistance to southern leaf blight, caused by Cochliobolus heterostrophus race O. Six significant (LOD >3.1) quantitative trait loci (QTL) were identified for disease resistance, located on chromosomes 1, 2, 3, 6, 7...

Soybean oil is the most widely produced vegetable oil in the world and its content in soybean seed is an important quality trait in breeding programs. More than 100 quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for soybean oil content have been identified. However, most of them are genotype specific and/or environment sensitive. Here, we used both a linkage and association mapping methodology to dissect the g...
