| global adaptation patterns of australian and cimmyt spring bread wheat. | the international adaptation trial (iat) is a special purpose nursery designed to investigate the genotype-by-environment interactions and worldwide adaptation for grain yield of australian and cimmyt spring bread wheat (triticum aestivum l.) and durum wheat (t. turgidum l. var. durum). the iat contains lines representing australian and cimmyt wheat breeding programs and was distributed to 91 countries between 2000 and 2004. yield data of 41 reference lines from 106 trials were analysed. a multi ... | 2007 | 17768603 |
| fine mapping and targeted snp survey using rice-wheat gene colinearity in the region of the bo1 boron toxicity tolerance locus of bread wheat. | toxicity due to high levels of soil boron (b) represents a significant limitation to cereal production in some regions, and the bo1 gene provides a major source of b toxicity tolerance in bread wheat (triticum aestivum l.). a novel approach was used to develop primers to amplify and sequence gene fragments specifically from the bo1 region of the hexaploid wheat genome. single-nucleotide polymorphisms (snps) identified were then used to generate markers close to bo1 on the distal end of chromosom ... | 2007 | 17571251 |
| the tadreb3 transgene transferred by conventional crossings to different genetic backgrounds of bread wheat improves drought tolerance. | drought tolerance of the wheat cultivar bobwhite was previously enhanced by transformation with a construct containing the wheat dreb3 gene driven by the stress-inducible maize rab17 promoter. progeny of a single t2 transgenic line were used as pollinators in crosses with four elite bread wheat cultivars from western australia: bonnie rock, igw-2971, magenta and wyalkatchem, with the aim of evaluating transgene performance in different genetic backgrounds. the selected pollinator line, bw8-9-10- ... | 2016 | 25940960 |
| differential growth and yield by canola (brassica napus l.) and wheat (triticum aestivum l.) arising from alterations in chemical properties of sandy soils due to additions of fly ash. | there is a need for field trials on testing agronomic potential of coal fly ash to engender routine use of this technology. two field trials were undertaken with alkaline and acidic fly ashes supplied at between 3 and 6 mg ha⁻¹ to acidic soils and sown to wheat and canola at richmond (eastern australia) and to wheat only at merredin (western australia). | 2013 | 23070937 |
| tolerance of hordeum marinum accessions to o2 deficiency, salinity and these stresses combined. | when root-zone o(2) deficiency occurs together with salinity, regulation of shoot ion concentrations is compromised even more than under salinity alone. tolerance was evaluated amongst 34 accessions of hordeum marinum, a wild species in the triticeae, to combined salinity and root-zone o(2) deficiency. interest in h. marinum arises from the potential to use it as a donor for abiotic stress tolerance into wheat. | 2009 | 18701600 |
