Characteristics of mature wheat embryos with different resistance to scab cultured in vitro with Fusarium graminearum crude toxin
Authors: S. Wang, M. Wang and C.Y. Zhang
Five wheat varieties with different resistance to scab were used to study the effect of Fusarium graminearum crude toxin on culture characteristics of mature wheat embryos in vitro. The results showed that the rate of induction and differentiation of mature embryo callus differed significantly between varieties, toxin concentration, and concentration x va.. Read More»

Genetic and epigenetic alterations induced by different levels of rye genome integration in wheat recipient
Authors: X.L. Zheng, J.P. Zhou, L.L. Zang, A.T. Tang, D.Q. Liu, K.J. Deng and Y. Zhang
The narrow genetic variation present in common wheat (Triticum aestivum) varieties has greatly restricted the improvement of crop yield in modern breeding systems. Alien addition lines have proven to be an effective means to broaden the genetic diversity of common wheat. Wheat-rye addition lines, which are the direct bridge ma.. Read More»

Rutin, quercetin, and free amino acid analysis in buckwheat (Fagopyrum) seeds from different locations
Authors: C.Z. Bai, M.L. Feng, X.L. Hao, Q.M. Zhong, L.G. Tong and Z.H. Wang
In this study, five common buckwheats and nine tartary buckwheats grown at different locations were analyzed for the contents of rutin, quercetin, and amino acids by high-performance liquid chromatography and spectrophotometry. The rutin content was higher than quercetin in buckwheat seeds. Rutin content was in the range from 0.05 (0.05 g per 100 g dry se.. Read More»

Intraspecific variability of Bipolaris sorokiniana isolates determined by random-amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD)
Authors: Aida T.S. Matsumura, Ariano M. Prestes, Sueli T. Van Der Sand, Andr�©ia M.R. de Oliveir
Isolates of Bipolaris sorokiniana were analyzed by random-amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) techniques to determine the amount of intraspecific genetic variability and to study host-pathogen interactions. Ten isolates originated from different regions of Brazil were examined. Plants of the wheat cultivars BR8, BH1146 (original .. Read More»
