A direct comparison of remote sensing approaches for high-throughput phenotyping in plant breeding
(Frontiers, 2016)
Remote sensing (RS) of plant canopies permits non-intrusive, high-throughput monitoring of plant physiological characteristics. This study compared three RS approaches using a low flying UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle), with ...
First report of sugar beet nematode, Heterodera schachtii Schmidt, 1871 (Nemata: Heteroderidae) in sugar beet growing areas of Sanliurfa, Turkey
(Entomological Soc Turkey, 2016)
The sugar beet nematode, Heterodera schachtii, is the major pest of sugar beet and causes serious yield
losses of about 10-70%. Heterodera schachtii occurs in more than 50 countries and regions, however, there has be
limited ...
Harnessing diversity in wheat to enhance grain yield, climate resilience, disease and insect pest resistance and nutrition through conventional and modern breeding approaches
(Frontiers, 2016)
Current trends in population growth and consumption patterns continue to increase the demand for wheat, a key cereal for global food security. Further, multiple abiotic challenges due to climate change and evolving pathogen ...
Genomic selection for processing and end-use quality traits in the CIMMYT spring bread wheat breeding program
(CSSA, 2016)
Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars must possess suitable end-use quality for release and consumer acceptability. However, breeding for quality traits is often considered a secondary target relative to yield largely ...
Association analysis of resistance to cereal cyst nematodes (Heterodera avenae) and root lesion nematodes (Pratylenchus neglectus and P. thornei) in CIMMYT advanced spring wheat lines for semi-arid conditions
(Japanese Society of Breeding, 2016)
To identify loci linked to nematode resistance genes, a total of 126 of CIMMYT advanced spring wheat lines adapted to semi-arid conditions were screened for resistance to Heterodera avenae, Pratylenchus neglectus, and P. ...
Modelling and genetic dissection of staygreen under heat stress
(Springer, 2016)
Plant chlorophyll retention—staygreen—is considered a valuable trait under heat stress. Five experiments with the Seri/Babax wheat mapping population were sown in Mexico under hot-irrigated environments. Normalized difference ...
Nested association mapping of stem rust resistance in wheat using genotyping by sequencing
(Public Library of Science, 2016)
We combined the recently developed genotyping by sequencing (GBS) method with joint
mapping (also known as nested association mapping) to dissect and understand the
genetic architecture controlling stem rust resistance ...
Employing phenology to delineate Wheat Agro-Climatic Zones in Afghanistan
(Canadian Center of Science and Education, 2016)
Afghanistan grows wheat on about 2.5 million hectares with an average annual production of about five million
tonnes. The local research and development efforts make use of country wide research results to recommend
varieties ...
Growth habit and vernalization requirement in some of Iranian bread wheat cultivars
(Research Trend, 2015)
To determine the action of vernalization and growth habit variation in cultivars of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), this research was carried out in greenhouse of Agricultural and Natural Resources Research Center of ...
