The objective of this paper is to review progress made in wheat breeding for Fusarium head blight (FHB) resistance China, the United States America (USA), and Canada. In numerous Chinese landraces possessing high levels FHB were grown before 1950s. Later, pyramiding multiple sources from introduced germplasm such as Mentana Funo locally adapted cultivars played a key role combining satisfactory yield potential commercial cultivars. Sumai 3, spring cultivar, became major source USA Canada,...

Abstract Xanthomonas translucens is a group of gram‐negative bacteria that can cause important diseases in cereal crops and forage grasses. Different pathovars have been defined according to their host ranges, molecular biochemical characteristics. Pathovars placed into two major groups: graminis. The contains the causing bacterial leaf streak (BLS) on such as wheat, barley, triticale, rye, oat. In recent years, BLS has re‐emerged problem for many wheat‐ barley‐producing areas worldwide....

Abstract Sources of resistance to Fusarium head blight (FHB) in wheat are mostly restricted Chinese hexaploid genotypes. The effort incorporate the from or wild relatives cultivated durum (Triticum turgidum L. var. Desf.) have not been successful providing level donor parents. In this study, we used 171 BC1F6 and 169 BC1F7 lines derived crossing four Tunisian tetraploid sources (Tun7, Tun18, Tun34, Tun36) with cultivars ‘Ben,’ ‘Maier,’ ‘Lebsock,’ ‘Mountrail’ for association studies. Tun18...

ABSTRACT In this study we assess the genetic architecture of bread‐making quality traits in spring wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.). A mapping population derived from BR34 and ‘Grandin’ was used to measure 20 end‐use including six kernel, seven milling flour, four dough mixing strength, three traits. total 31 quantitative trait loci (QTL) significantly associated with all but two were identified. These QTL clustered five chromosomal regions, namely 1BS, 1DL, 4BL, 5BL, 6AS, explained a large...

Core Ideas The emergence of new virulent Puccinia triticina races requires a continuous search for novel sources resistance to combat leaf rust (LR) disease Twenty‐two wheat genotypes resistant four P. were identified in this study A genome‐wide association detected 11 quantitative trait loci LR resistance; five them on genomic regions where no genes have been . Wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) production worldwide is being challenged by several biotic and abiotic factors. Leaf (LR), caused ,...

‘Faller’ (Reg. No. CV‐1026, PI 648350) hard red spring wheat (HRSW) ( Triticum aestivum L.) was developed at North Dakota State University (NDSU) and released by the Agricultural Experiment Station (NDAES). Faller derived from ND2857/ND2814 cross made NDSU in fall 1997. ND2857 (ND2709/ND688) is a experimental line with good resistance to Fusarium head blight (FHB) (caused graminearum Schwabe [telomorph Gibberella zeae (Schwein.) Petch]) originating ND2709, known possess Fhb1 quantitative...

ABSTRACT Fusarium head blight (FHB) caused by graminearum Schwabe causes extensive losses in durum wheat [ Triticum turgidum subsp. (Desf.) Husn.]. The only verified resistance contributed a tetraploid species comes from T. L. dicoccoides (Körn. ex Asch. & Graebn.) Thell. This research was conducted to determine whether five Tunisian lines exhibiting Type II FHB carry the same alleles as hexaploid ‘Frontana’, ‘Sumai 3’, and ‘Wangshuibai’ genotype (Israel A). One hundred thirty‐one...

Fusarium head blight (FHB) is one of the most destructive diseases in wheat worldwide. Breeding for FHB resistance hampered by its complex genetic architecture, large genotype environment interaction, and high cost phenotype screening. Genomic selection (GS) a powerful tool to enhance improvement traits such as resistance. The objectives this study were (1) investigate architecture North Dakota State University (NDSU) hard red spring breeding population, (2) test if major QTL Fhb1 Fhb5 play...

In wheat, exotic genotypes harbor a broad range of spike-related traits, and can be used as source new genes for germplasm enhancement in wheat breeding programs. the present study, population 163 recombinant inbred lines was derived from cross between an elite line (WCB414) (WCB617) with branched spike (supernumerary spikelet; SS) head morphology. The evaluated over four to six environments identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated nine traits 10 agronomic traits. A genetic map...

Understanding the genetics of drought tolerance can expedite development drought-tolerant cultivars in wheat. In this study, we dissected spring wheat using a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population derived from cross between cultivar, ‘Reeder’ (PI613586), and high-yielding but drought-susceptible ‘Albany.’ The RIL was evaluated for grain yield (YLD), volume weight (GVW), thousand kernel (TKW), plant height (PH), days to heading (DH) at nine different environments. Infinium 90 k-based...

Understanding the genetics of drought tolerance in hard red spring wheat (HRSW) northern USA is a prerequisite for developing drought-tolerant cultivars this region. An association mapping (AM) study was undertaken using 361 genotypes and Infinium 90K single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) assay. The were evaluated nine different locations North Dakota (ND) plant height (PH), days to heading (DH), yield (YLD), test weight (TW), thousand kernel (TKW) under rain-fed conditions.

Wheat is used for making many food products due to its diverse quality profile found among different wheat classes. Since laboratory analysis of these end-use traits costly and time-consuming, genetic dissection the preferential. This study a genome-wide association (GWAS) 10 traits, including kernel protein, flour yield, softness equivalence, solvent’s retention capacity, cookie diameter, top-grain, in soft red winter (SRWW) adapted US southeast. The GWAS included 266 SRWW genotypes that...

ND2710 is a hard red spring wheat line with very high level of resistance to Fusarium head blight (FHB). It was selected from the progeny cross between ND2603 (an advanced breeding derived Sumai 3/Wheaton cross) and Grandin (a cultivar). The FHB presumably 3 because other parents (Grandin Wheaton) are susceptible FHB. To identify map quantitative trait loci (QTL) for in ND2710, we developed mapping population consisting 233 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) cultivar Bobwhite. These RILs along...
