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 ...

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), ...

Boron deficiency in wheat
(CIMMYT, 1992)
Boron deficiency in soils has been reported to affect more and more crops, especially so in the warmer environments. Two reasons come to mind: Either the problem has not been recognized in the past and the symptoms have ...

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 ...
Report
Vernalization requirement and response to day length in guiding development in wheat
(CIMMYT, 1993)
Vernalization requirement and response to day length are the major factors controlling development in wheat (Triticum aesitvum L.). This study was to determine how they integrate in the field in Obregon, Sonora, Mexico to ...

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 ...
Handbook
A guide to the CIMMYT bread wheat section
(CIMMYT, 1996)
This special report is an updated introduction to the CIMMYT Wheat Program's Bread Wheat Section. It is designed to help acquaint visiting scientists and other interested persons with the Section's structure, activities, ...
Report
Canopy temperatures of wheat: relationships with yield and potential as a technique for early generation selection
(CIMMYT, 1993)
It is shown that, for bread wheat, air-canopy temperature difference correlates significantly with grain yield, especially when measurements are taken later in the day, We discuss the potential of this technique as an early ...

Management and use of international trial data for improving breeding efficiency
(CIMMYT, 1992)
The Germplasm Improvement Subprogram organized a workshop and think-tank on management and use of international trial data for increasing breeding efficiency at Ciudad Obregon, Mexico on January 21-22, 1992. Participants ...
