New introgressive forms of cultivated barley obtained on the basis of interspecific hybrids Hordeum vulgare L. × Hordeum bulbosum L.

Биотехнология и селекция растений, 2021
Background. The use of alien genetic material of bulbous barley Hordeum bulbosum L. to increase the diversity of cultivated barley Hordeum vulgare L. is an important task, since H. bulbosum is characterized by a number of valuable traits. One of the ways

Modeling meiotic chromosomes indicates a size dependent contribution of telomere clustering and chromosome rigidity to homologue juxtaposition [PDF]

, 2012
Meiosis is the cell division that halves the genetic component of diploid cells to form gametes or spores. To achieve this, meiotic cells undergo a radical spatial reorganisation of chromosomes.

Genomic rearrangements generate hypervariable mini-chromosomes in host-specific isolates of the blast fungus.

PLoS Genetics, 2021
Supernumerary mini-chromosomes-a unique type of genomic structural variation-have been implicated in the emergence of virulence traits in plant pathogenic fungi.

Using intervarietal substitution lines for the identification of wheat chromosomes involved in early responses to water-deficit stress.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Water deficit induces reactive oxygen species (ROS) overproduction, which in turn inhibits plant growth and development. High concentrations of ROS disrupt the osmotic balance in plant cells and alter membrane integrity.

Holocentric chromosomes.

PLoS Genetics, 2020
Holocentric chromosomes possess multiple kinetochores along their length rather than the single centromere typical of other chromosomes [1]. They have been described for the first time in cytogenetic experiments dating from 1935 and, since this first ...

Atomic-force microscopy of plant chromosomes

, 1995
Atomic force microscopy has been used to image plant chromosomes from standard preparations without staining or coating. This has enabled the collection of high-resolution three-dimensional data on surface structure.

Germplasm Architecture Revealed through Chromosomal Effects for Quantitative Traits in Maize

The Plant Genome, 2016
Germplasm architecture refers to how favorable alleles for a given trait are distributed across the genome in a germplasm collection. Our objective was to assess germplasm architecture for quantitative traits among US maize ( L.) inbreds.

High density genetic mapping of Fusarium head blight resistance QTL in tetraploid wheat. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Breeding for Fusarium head blight (FHB) resistance in durum wheat is complicated by the quantitative trait expression and narrow genetic diversity of available resources.
