Genetic diversity of Pyrenophora tritici-repentis in Algeria as revealed by amplified fragement length polymorphism (AFLP) analysis
Tan spot caused by Pyrenophora tritici-repentis is a major wheat disease. DNA of 61 isolates of P. tritici-repentis from different cereal growing areas in Algeria were analyzed using amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) in order to...
First Report of Resistance of Wheat Line Avocet 'S' to Stripe Rust Caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst) in Syria
Seedling assays and field-based assessments are common approaches used in monitoring pathogenic variability of Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst). Due to the many candidate genes for resistance, and the occasional presence of...
Phenotypic diversity and relationships among a worldwide durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. var. durum) germplasm collection under rainfed conditions of Iran
Development of COS-SNP and HRM markers for highthroughput and reliable haplotype-based detection of Lr14a in durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.)
Leaf rust (Puccinia triticina Eriks. & Henn.) is a major disease affecting durum wheat production. The Lr14a-resistant gene present in the durum wheat cv. Creso and its derivative cv. Colosseo is one of the best characterized leaf-rust...
A radiation hybrid map of chromosome 1D reveals synteny conservation at a wheat speciation locus
The species cytoplasm specific (scs) genes affect nuclear-cytoplasmic interactions in interspecific hybrids. A radiation hybrid (RH) mapping population of 188 individuals was employed to refine the location of the scsae locus on Triticum...
Wheat Zapper: a flexible online tool for colinearity studies in grass genomes
In the course of evolution, the genomes of grasses have maintained an observable degree of gene order conservation. The information available for already sequenced genomes can be used to predict the gene order of nonsequenced species by means of...
For ICARDA, 2012 has been a time of change and evolution. We have been busy tackling the many issues of dryland agriculture and global food production against a backdrop of focusing our efforts as a force for change for people living in the...
