Triticale (X Triticosecale Wittmack) is an artificial hybrid of wheat (Triticum sp.) and rye (Secale sp.) first bred in laboratories during the late 19 century. In little more than a century, triticale has developed from a biological curiosity to a practical crop. Plant breeders have made efforts to overcome main problems of triticale: preharvest sprouting, susceptibility to diseases, sensitivi...

abstract to study virulence and molecular polymorphism variation of puccinia striiformis westend. f.sp.tritici eriks. (yellow rust disease agent) in iran, 86 isolates were collected from all around the country. race determination was carried out according to johnson et al. (1972) method. in addition, isolates were analyzed by aflp method by four primer combinations . according to the results of...

Grain softness protein (GSP) is an important protein for overcoming milling and grain defenses in the innate immunity systems of cereals. The objective of this study was to evaluate and understand GSP sequences in selected wheat, rye and triticale. Using sequences for this gene from a sequence database, we performed clustering analysis to compare the sequences obtained from 3 germplasms wi...

in this study cell wall carbohydrates with kit method and  excreta viscosity  of 13 elite  triticale varieties  was measured. the results showed, the average and range changes values of anti-nutritional compounds in the thirteen varieties of triticale included; total ß-glucan, soluble ß-glucan, insoluble ß-glucan, total arabinoxylane, soluble fiber, insoluble fiber and total soluble and insolub...

objective: wheat is the most important crop in iran. self sufficiency in wheat production is one of the economic and food safety policies in the country. in spite of the efforts which have been made in this area, the mean of wheat yield in iran is less than its world average. methods: in order to identifying of the high yielding wheat lines with optimal characteristics and to determine the trai...

Background: A highly efficient genetic transformation system is essential for a successful genetic manipulation of the African violet (Saintpaulia ionantha Wendl.). Objectives: Developing a particle bombardment-based genetic transformation system for the African violet. Materials and Methods: A local cultivar of the African violet from Guilan province was used for transformation experiments. Th...

yield stability of 17 genotypes including eight of tritipyrum lines, five promising triticale lines and four iranian bread wheat varieties were studied in a randomized completely block design with three replications in seven environment during growing seasons of 2001-2002, 2002-2003, 2005-2006 and 2010-2011 in three locations. analysis of additive main effects and multiplicative interaction eff...
