HYBRID WHEATS

Responses of Various Spring Wheats to Vernalization.

There is little information in the literature regarding North American varieties of spring wheat which are responsive to vernalization treatment. The same variety has been reported by different investigators to react positively or negatively to treatmenit. For example, VAN HOEK (3) obtained acceleration of maturity when springof wheat was vernalized, but treatmelnt of the same variety by GMELIN...

Unlocking the genetic diversity of Creole wheats.

Climate change and slow yield gains pose a major threat to global wheat production. Underutilized genetic resources including landraces and wild relatives are key elements for developing high-yielding and climate-resilient wheat varieties. Landraces introduced into Mexico from Europe, also known as Creole wheats, are adapted to a wide range of climatic regimes and represent a unique genetic res...

Analysis of Export Targeting of Canadian Wheats

Characterization of greenbug (Homoptera: Aphididae) resistance in synthetic hexaploid wheats.

Twelve greenbug (Schizaphis graminum (Rondani)) biotype E-resistant synthetic hexaploid wheats synthesized by crossing Triticum dicoccum Schrank. and Aegilops tauschii (Coss.) Schmal. were evaluated for the three known insect resistance categories, including antibiosis, anti-xenosis, and tolerance. Different methods were evaluated for calculating antibiosis and tolerance. Calculating intrinsic ...
