Competitive Interactions of Wild Oat (Avena fatua L.) with Quality and Yield of Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) [PDF]
: Crop-weed competition and interactions are the focus of many researchers to make the weed management decision accurate and economical. Therefore, field studies were conducted in two consecutive years (2012-13 and 2013-14) at two different locations viz

Molecular variation and genetic relationships among Aegilops tauschii accessions based on CAAT-box derived polymorphism [PDF]
Objective The importance of wild relatives in wheat breeding has caused a lot of investigations to study the genetic diversity and population structures in different species of wild wheat, using various molecular markers. The purpose of this study was to

Harnessing the diversity of wild emmer wheat for genetic improvement of durum wheat [PDF]
Abstract Key message The multiple derivative lines (MDLs) characterized in this study offer a promising strategy for harnessing the diversity of wild emmer wheat for durum and bread wheat improvement. Abstract Crop domestication has diminished genetic diversity and reduced ...
