OJIP analysis, which explores changes in photosystem II (PSII) photochemical performance, has been used as a measure of plant susceptibility to stress. However, in the case of freezing tolerance and winter hardiness, which are highly environmentally variable, the use of this method can give ambiguous results depending on the species as well as the sampling year and time. To clarify this issue, ...

Biosolids are utilized as nutrient rich fertilizer. Little material is available on benefits to forage crops resulting from fertilization with biosolids. This paper aimed to compare the effects of fertilization with biosolids versus commercial nitrogen fertilizer on growth, root formation, and nutrient value of triticale plants in a greenhouse experiment. Per treatment, five pots were seeded wi...

introduction corn and wheat are the grains most routinely used in commercial poultry diets. for consumption of these cereals, there are a competition between humans and mono-gastric animals. due to corn crop limitation in iran, approximately 50% of the corn required for poultry nutrition is supplied through imports. since triticale is more resistant to various diseases, dry weather and in simil...

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...

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...

Article history: Received on: 26/11/2013 Revised on: 08/12/2013 Accepted on: 14/12/2013 Available online: 31/12/2013 Hexaploid triticale (x Triticosecale Wittmack) is a man-made hybrid that consists of 3 genomes, A, B and R, the Aand B-genome from wheat and the R-genome from rye. Simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers are transferable between closely related species. The aim of this study was to ...

Genetic diversity analysis of triticale populations is useful for breeding programs, as it helps to select appropriate genetic material for classifying the parental lines, heterotic groups and predicting hybrid performance. In our study 232 breeding forms were analyzed using diversity arrays technology markers. Principal coordinate analysis followed by model-based Bayesian analysis of populatio...

The capability of UAVs imagery to monitor and predict the evolution several forage associations was assessed during whole growing cycle 2019–20. For this purpose, eight different grown in triplicate were used: vetch-barley-triticale (VBT), vetch-triticale (VT), vetch-rye (VR), vetch-oats (VO), pea-barley-triticale (PBT), pea-triticale (PT), pea-rye (PR) pea-oats (PO). Six biophysical parameters...
