Epidemiology of Karnal bunt of wheat incited by neovossia indica and an attempt to develop a disease prediction system
(CIMMYT, 1991)
Karnal bunt, is a disease of the wheat grain caused by a fungus and is said to have evolved in South Asia. It has come under concern in both India and Mexico over the last few years. In the present treatise, an attempt has ...

Genetic diversity for photosynthesis in wheat under heat-stressed environments and its relationship to productivity
(CIMMYT, 1994)
Genetic variation in photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, leaf chlorophyll content, and dark respiration was studied in 16 wheat genotypes (Triticum aestivum L.) grown under high-temperature field conditions in central ...

CIMMYT/NARS Consultancy on ME1 bread wheat breeding: 4-7 April, 1995 Cd. Obregon, Sonora, Mexico
(CIMMYT, 1995)
Through the mechanism of internally managed external reviews (IMERS), all activities of the Wheat Program were reviewed in the period 1990-1994. In general, this was a satisfactory exercise, except that we felt NARS input ...

A guide to the CIMMYT Crop Management and Physiology Subprogram
(CIMMYT, 1993)
Emphasis in presenting developments and achievements of Crop Management and Physiology (CMP) will be placed on the period dating from 1988. This is when the strategic plan was formulated (although not published until 1989), ...

Results of the 1st International Heat Stress Genotype Experiment
(CIMMYT, 1992)
Fischer (1989) summarized the detrimental effects of high temperature on wheat growth as follows: Yield reduction can occur at temperatures above a mean as low as 150C, with the spike and grain growth phases being especially ...

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 ...

Increasing the yield potential of irrigated bread wheat: basis for physiological research at CIMMYT
(CIMMYT, 1992)
Yield potential (YP) is defined as the "yield of a cultivar grown in environments to which it is adapted when nutrients and water are nonlimiting, and when pests, diseases, weeds, lodging, and other stresses are effectively ...

Breeding resistance to yellow (stripe) rust in wheat
(CIMMYT, 1997)
The information contained in this paper is a precis of the PhD thesis of Dr. H.P. Bimb. Since yellow (stripe) rust has recently reared its head in West and South Asia, the rapid publication of this Wheat Program Special ...

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 ...
