Stem rust, caused by Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici (Pgt), has potential to cause major yield losses in durum wheat. Development of cultivars with improved resistance stem rust is a sustainable option for effective control this disease. This study was conducted identify genomic regions associated Ug99-derived Pgt races using doubled haploid (DH) mapping population produced from cross between ...

Increasing demand for vegetable oil and protein requires breeding efforts to enhance the yield of oilseed rape. This can be achieved by reducing seed cellulose, hemicellulose lignin content. The objective study was analyse important agronomic traits two distinct bulks genotypes from crosses, with low (6%) high content (10%). genotype were formed mixing seeds 12 doubled haploid lines either or s...

The critical evolutionary step during domestication of major cereals was elimination of seed shattering because the easy-to-shatter trait in wild relatives results in a severe reduction in yield. In this study, we analyzed the QTLs associated with shattering employing a high-density genetic map in doubled haploid (DH) population of rice (Oryza sativa L.). A genetic linkage map was generated wit...

haploid plant per floret (Devaux, 1988). Androgenesis induction in microspores may be affected by various An efficient doubled-haploid production technology that induces factors which cause low induction efficiency and by gehomozygosity can greatly reduce the time and cost of cultivar developnotype dependence (Dunwell, 1985). Most advances toment. Low efficiency of doubled-haploid production pr...

Doubled haploids of carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus L.) were obtained by pseudofertilized ovule culture. Emasculated ̄ower buds of carnation were pollinated with pollen inactivated by Xray irradiation. After 2±3 weeks, the ovaries were explanted and were cultured on solid MS medium containing 2 mM NAA, 2 mM BAP and 6% sucrose. Regenerated plants(R0) were morphologically different from the moth...
