Relative performance of testers to identify elite lines of corn (Zea mays L.)
(Consiglio per la Ricerca e la sperimentazione in Agricoltura, Unità di Ricerca per la Maiscoltura, 1998)
Testcross evaluation is used to determine the relative potential of corn (Zea mays L.) lines in a hybrid breeding program. Choice of tester is important for efficient selection among lines for their potential in hybrids. ...

Specificity of a rust resistance suppressor on 7DL in the spring wheat cultivar Canthatch
(American Phytopathological Society (APS), 2015)
The spring wheat ‘Canthatch’ has been shown to suppress stem rust resistance genes in the background due to the presence of a suppressor gene located on the long arm of chromosome 7D. However, it is unclear whether the ...
