The use of unbalanced historical data for genomic selection in an international wheat breeding program
(Elsevier, 2013)
Genomic selection (GS) offers breeders the possibility of using historic data and unbalanced breeding trials to form training populations for predicting the performance of new lines. However, when using datasets that are ...

Resistance to spot blotch in two mapping populations of common wheat is controlled by multiple QTL of minor effects
(MDPI, 2018)
Spot blotch (SB) is an important fungal disease of wheat in South Asia and South America. Host resistance is regarded as an economical and environmentally friendly approach of controlling SB, and the inheritance of resistance ...

Genetics for low correlation between Fusarium head blight disease and deoxynivalenol (DON) content in a bread wheat mapping population
(Springer, 2019)
Key message: Two QTL with major effects on DON content reduction were identified on chromosomes 3BL and 3DL, with the former showing minor and the latter showing no effects on FHB resistance. Abstract: Deoxynivalenol (DON) ...

Mining centuries old In situ conserved turkish wheat landraces for grain yield and stripe rust resistance genes
(Frontiers, 2016)
Wheat landraces in Turkey are an important genetic resource for wheat improvement. An exhaustive 5-year (2009–2014) effort made by the International Winter Wheat Improvement Programme (IWWIP), a cooperative program between ...

Effect of Ppd-1 genes on durum wheat flowering time and grain filling duration in a wide range of latitudes
(Cambridge University Press, 2016)
Understanding the effect of genetic factors controlling flowering time is essential to fine-tune crop development to each target environment and to maximize yield. A set of 35 durum wheat genotypes of spring growth-habit ...

Resistance of winter wheat to Heterodera filipjevi in Turkey
(The Scientific and Technology Research Council of Turkey, 2014)
Cereal cyst nematodes (CCNs) are plant parasites that significantly limit global cereal production. The most frequently reported pathogenic species are Heterodera avenae, H. filipjevi, and H. latipons. One of the most ...

Changes in durum wheat root and aerial biomass caused by the introduction of the Rht-B1b dwarfing allele and their effects on yield formation
(Springer Verlag, 2016)
Aims: This study aimed to quantify the changes in root and aerial biomass of durum wheat brought about by the introduction of the Rht-B1b dwarfing allele and their effects on yield formation. Methods A historical series ...
Article
Strategies for selecting crosses using genomic prediction in two wheat breeding programs
(Crop Science Society of America, 2017)
The single most important decision in plant breeding programs is the selection of appropriate crosses. The ideal cross would provide superior predicted progeny performance and enough diversity to maintain genetic gain. The ...

QTL characterization of fusarium head blight resistance in CIMMYT bread wheat line soru#1
(Public Library of Science, 2016)
Fusarium head blight (FHB) resistant line Soru#1 was hybridized with the German cultivar Naxos to generate 131 recombinant inbred lines for QTL mapping. The population was phenotyped for FHB and associated traits in spray ...
Article
Wheat quality improvement at CIMMYT and the use of genomic selection on it
(Elsevier, 2016)
The International Center for Maize and Wheat Improvement (CIMMYT) leads the Global Wheat Program, whose main objective is to increase the productivity of wheat cropping systems to reduce poverty in developing countries. ...
