Bread wheat, durum wheat, and synthetic hexaploid wheat in saline and non-saline soils
(CIMMYT, 1999)
Genetic improvement of crops for salt tolerance will become ever more important as it becomes necessary to cultivate marginal soils. The work reported here evaluated the intra- and interspecific variability in yield response ...

Russian wheat aphid research at CIMMYT: current status and future goals
(CIMMYT, 1991)
A few years ago, CIMMYT started working on the Russian Wheat Aphid (Diuraphis noxia) on a very small scale. Reports on the spread and damage due to this aphid's attack are on the increase in both developed and developing ...

Photosynthetic characteristics of synthetic bread wheats
(CIMMYT, 1994)
In the process of genetic improvement of bread wheat, photosynthetic rate per unit leaf area has decreased significantly from the maximum photosynthetic rate (Pmax) of the crop's diploid ancestors (donors of the A, B, and ...

Utilizing wild grass biodiversity in wheat improvement: 15 years of wide cross research at CIMMYT
(CIMMYT, 1995)
For the first time, this report brings together detailed accounts of new knowledge and techniques developed through wheat wide crosses research at CIMMYT since this work was initiated in 1979. Beginning with a summary of ...

Evaluating fusarium graminearum resistance in bread wheats, synthetic wheats and their derivatives
(CIMMYT, 1998)
The number of sources of resistance to head blight caused by Fusarium graminearum Schw, is limited in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Most resistance sources come from China, Brazil, and Japan. However, they are for the most ...
