effect of static magnetic field (smf) on plants is a matter of debate. in the present study plausible useful effects of smf on wheat plant (triticum aestivum l.) via improvement of antioxidant system and iron/ferritin fortification were evaluated. the plants were cultivated in pots and in their reproductive stages were treated with or without a 30 mt smf for 4 days, each 5h. the activity of ant...

the objective of this study was to estimate genetic parameters and to investigate the type of gene action in controlling androgenesis in wheat. two wheat cultivars of grebe and houtman were reciprocally crossed with two synthetic genotypes of do1 and pol and then a complete set of the parents, f1, reciprocal f1 (rf1), f2 and back-cross generations (bc1 and bc2) of each cross were used for anthe...

The diploid species that donated the A and D genomes to the polyploid wheats have been recognized for some time. New evidence indicates that Triticum speltoides cannot be the B genome donor to T. turgidum or T. aestivum. T. speltoides is probably homologous to the G genome of T. timopheevii. The donor of the B genome to T. turgidum and T. aestivum is currently unrecognized.

Pseudomonas fluorescens strain 2-79, a natural isolate of the rhizosphere of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), possesses antagonistic potential toward several fungal pathogens. We report the draft genome sequence of strain 2-79, which comprises 5,674 protein-coding sequences.

Resin extractable Mo explained 72% of the variation in yield of wheat (Triticum aestivum) grown on ten acid soils as measured by the relative yield of the tops or by the uptake of Mo by the youngest emerged blade.

Flavonoids tricin, iso-orientin, vanillin, iso-vitexin, apigenin, 8-hydroxy flavones, 4’-hydroxy chalcone have been isolated from leaves of early stage triticum aestivum. Their quantitative analysis has been done through elemental and spectral analysis.
