GENETIC DIVERSITY OF CEREAL CROPS FOR POWDERY MILDEW RESISTANCE

genetic analysis of powdery mildew resistance in some barely lines

powdery mildew, caused by blumeria graminis hordei, is currently the most serious foliar disease of barley in worldwide and reduced barley yield. the use of resistant cultivars is an efficient, economical and environmentally way to control of powdery mildew in barley. in this research a half diallel design was used for genetic analysis of resistance to powdery mildew (bgh) in barley. six barley...

Genetic Diversity of the Pm3 Powdery Mildew Resistance Alleles in Wheat Gene Bank Accessions as Assessed by Molecular Markers

Genetic resources of crop plants are essential for crop breeding. They are conserved in gene banks in form of a large numbers of accessions. These accessions harbor allelic variants of agronomically important genes and molecular tools allow a rapid assessment of this allelic diversity. Here, we have screened a collection of 1005 wheat gene bank accessions for powdery mildew resistance and a mol...

Genetic transformation of major cereal crops.

Of the more than 50,000 edible plant species in the world, at least 10,000 species are cereal grains. Three major cereal crops, rice (Oryza sativa), maize (Zea mays), and wheat (Triticum sp.), provide two-thirds of the world's food energy intake. Although crop yields have improved tremendously thanks to technological advances in the past 50 years, population increases and climate changes contin...
