Introgression Mapping of Genes for Winter Hardiness and Frost Tolerance Transferred from Festuca arundinacea into Lolium multiflorum

Genetic Architecture of Winter Hardiness and Frost Tolerance in Triticale

Abiotic stress experienced by autumn-sown crops during winter is of great economic importance as it can have a severe negative impact on yield. In this study, we investigated the genetic architecture of winter hardiness and frost tolerance in triticale. To this end, we used a large mapping population of 647 DH lines phenotyped for both traits in combination with genome-wide marker data. Employi...

Water Deficit Affects Primary Metabolism Differently in Two Lolium multiflorum/Festuca arundinacea Introgression Forms with a Distinct Capacity for Photosynthesis and Membrane Regeneration

Understanding how plants respond to drought at different levels of cell metabolism is an important aspect of research on the mechanisms involved in stress tolerance. Furthermore, a dissection of drought tolerance into its crucial components by the use of plant introgression forms facilitates to analyze this trait more deeply. The important components of plant drought tolerance are the capacity ...

QTL Mapping of Winter Hardiness Genes in Lentil

chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is reportedly controlled by at least five genes with tolerance dominant over Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) germplasm with sufficient winter susceptibility (Malhotra and Singh, 1990). hardiness to survive most winters in cold northern areas is available. However, the use of that germplasm in breeding programs is hampered One of the major problems in characterizing ...
