Detection and Verification of QTL for Salinity Tolerance at Germination and Seedling Stages Using Wild Barley Introgression Lines [PDF]
Salinity is one of the major environmental factors that negatively affect crop development, particularly at the early growth stage of a plant and consequently the final yield. Therefore, a set of 50 wild barley (Hordeum vulgare ssp.

Genotype-dependent salt tolerance mechanisms in wheat–Thinopyrum introgression lines revealed by ion transporter gene expression and seedling phenotyping [PDF]
Soil salinity significantly impairs wheat growth and yield worldwide. Wild relatives of wheat, such as Thinopyrum species, harbor valuable salt tolerance traits that can improve cultivated wheat via introgression.

Exploring the genetic variation of wheat-Triticum timopheevii introgression lines for flowering morphology traits for hybrid wheat use [PDF]
IntroductionThe autogamous nature of wheat presents a significant challenge for hybrid wheat breeding, which relies on cross-pollination. To facilitate hybrid wheat production, it is essential to modify the floral morphology of wheat to promote ...

Development and characterization of GR2E Golden rice introgression lines [PDF]
Golden Rice with β-carotene in the grain helps to address the problem of vitamin A deficiency. Prior to commercialize Golden Rice, several performance and regulatory checkpoints must be achieved. We report results of marker assisted backcross breeding of

Benefit of Introgression Depends on Level of Genetic Trait Variation in Cereal Breeding Programmes
We investigated the benefit from introgression of external lines into a cereal breeding programme and strategies that accelerated introgression of the favourable alleles while minimising linkage drag using stochastic computer simulation.

To develop and characterize introgression lines for leaf and neck blast resistance, 326 introgression lines were developed using various accessions of six different AA genome wild species in the genetic background of elite Indian varieties like PR114 and

BackgroundIt is widely accepted that interspecific hybridization may induce genomic instability in the resultant hybrids. However, few studies have been performed on the genomic analysis of homoploid hybrids and introgression lines.

Yield-enhancing heterotic QTL transferred from wild species to cultivated rice Oryza sativa L. [PDF]
Utilization of "hidden genes" from wild species has emerged as a novel option for enrichment of genetic diversity for productivity traits. In rice we have generated more than 2000 lines having introgression from 'A' genome-donor wild species of rice in ...

In Kenya and many other African countries, improving rice productivity is vital for future food security. To improve rice productivity in Kenya, near-isogenic lines (NIL) were developed by introducing Gn1a and WFP, genes that function to increase grain ...
